[jira] [Created] (AVRO-1933) SchemaCompatibility class could be more user-friendly about incompatibilities

Anders Sundelin created AVRO-1933:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: SchemaCompatibility class could be more user-friendly about incompatibilities
                 Key: AVRO-1933
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1933
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: java
    Affects Versions: 1.8.1
         Environment: Any Java env
            Reporter: Anders Sundelin
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.9.0


Today, the class SchemaCompatibility reports incompatibilities with quite little detail. The whole reader and the whole writer schema is listed, and no particular detail about what was incompatible.

The attached patch fixes this, introducing a new enum (SchemaIncompatibilityType), and more specific sub-schemas that were incompatible.
The old, overall picture, is still there - the new compatibility state is encapsulated in the SchemaCompatibilityDetails class.
Lots of test cases have been added, and there has been refactoring done in the TestSchemaCompatibility and other test classes.
