["Doug Houck (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1285?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13650671#comment-13650671 ] 

Doug Houck commented on AVRO-1285:
----------------------------------

Hey Doug, the three cases sited appear to apply to external references, not circular references.  This Jira ticket (AVRO-1285) was intended for the case with schema A refers to schema B AND schema B refers back to schema A.  Am I missing something?

> While declaring a Schema, doing a circular reference is not possible if the Schema for the external reference is in another file. Attached is a project that provides 2 schemas that exhibits this missing feature.
