[jira] [Updated] (AVRO-3133) EnumAdjust.resolve should compare unqualified name rather than full name

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3133?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Adam McDevitt updated AVRO-3133:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Hello

I came across some unexpected errors after a deployment and have been digging into the Apache Avro source code.

I think [this comparison|https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/103477369fcb49a5372f9f5c1353fcd575119287/lang/java/avro/src/main/java/org/apache/avro/Resolver.java#L391] in the Enum resolver should use getName rather than getFullName

The [1.10.2 specification|https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.10.2/spec.html] says, under Schema Resolution:

 
{code:java}
It is an error if the two schemas do not match.
To match, one of the following must hold:

- both schemas are arrays whose item types match 
- both schemas are maps whose value types match 
- both schemas are enums whose (unqualified) names match 
- both schemas are fixed whose sizes and (unqualified) names match 
- both schemas are records with the same (unqualified) name {code}
i.e. unqualified names should be compared, whereas the linked code compares qualified names

Have I misunderstood something here? SchemaCompatibility.checkReaderWriterCompatibility uses unqualified namespaces in its comparisons. See AVRO-2400 and AVRO-2793. From one of the comments on AVRO-2400 you can see that the specification was not always clear on whether it meant qualified or unqualified names.
