[jira] Created: (AVRO-618) Avro doesn't work with python 2.4

Avro doesn't work with python 2.4
---------------------------------

                 Key: AVRO-618
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-618
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
            Reporter: Philip Zeyliger


The avro tests fail on a system with python2.4.  The issues can be easily worked around by avoiding python2.5 constructs and libraries.

The missing "struct.Struct" is what started me down this path, but I also ended up tackling a few other similar issues and re-jiggering slightly the build.xml to allow for "ant test -Dpython=python2.4" to work.

  File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/avro/io.py", line 52, in ?
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Struct'
{noformat}

Philip Zeyliger commented on AVRO-618:
--------------------------------------

They're pretty close.  I actually got rid of uuid completely, and just used the same mechanism that it uses to get a random 16 bytes, since there's no need to create the UUID object if all we're looking for is 16  random bytes.

I think the code has moved a bit, so mine might apply more cleanly.  Haven't tried applying 588.

I've also updated the build.xml file to run arbitrary versions of python easily, so this is easier to reproduce.

----------------------------------------

I already did this at AVRO-588, just haven't had time to check it in. Did you do anything differently?
