[jira] [Updated] (AVRO-3968) Support for custom @AvroNamespace annotation

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3968?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Henry Fernandes updated AVRO-3968:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently there are several java annotations like @AvroSchema, @AvroName, @AvroDoc etc that can be used to decorate Java POJO classes which in turn are used when generating avro schema with reflection.

While @AvroName annotation comes handy for overriding the name of fields, there is no support for overriding the namespace.

 

Currently by default the java POJO's package name is used as the namespace. This is a bit restrictive as there can be cases where we may want to generate the schema with a different namespace.

 

The ask over here is to provide a @AvroNamespace annotation that can let us override the namespace to what we intend to.

 

Happy to contribute with a PR for the same.
