>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1901
>             Project: Avro
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: java
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.7, 1.8.1, 1.9.0
>            Reporter: radai rosenblatt

> consider the following *.avsc file:
> {code:title=Exception.avsc}
> {
>   "type": "record",
>   "name": "Exception",
>   "namespace": "com.acme",
>   "fields" : [
>     {"name": "value", "type": "int"}
>   ],
>   "doc": "Will not submit to your fascist naming conventions"
> }
> {code}
> the generated java code will contain:
> {code:title=Exception.java}
> ...
> @override
> public Exception build() {
>    try {
>       ...
>       return record;
>    } catch (Exception e) { //boom
>       throw new org.apache.avro.AvroRuntimeException(e);
>    }
> }
> {code}
> which fails to compile because Exception refers to the generated class (which does not extend Throwable)
