[jira] [Created] (AVRO-1492) Upgrade snappy-java to 1.1.0 (or later)

Gabriel Reid created AVRO-1492:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Upgrade snappy-java to 1.1.0 (or later)
                 Key: AVRO-1492
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1492
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Gabriel Reid
            Priority: Minor


The version of snappy-java that is currently used in Avro (1.0.5) uses a method of loading native code that can cause issues in certain cases. A specific example of this is making use of Avro with snappy to write files from a Groovy script. Another example of the same situation can be seen [here on StackOverflow|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16036179/snappy-java-exception-after-elastic-search-upgrade].

As of [version 1.1.0-m4|https://github.com/xerial/snappy-java/blob/develop/Milestone.md#snappy-java-110-m4-20-august-2013], snappy-java makes use of a new method of loading native code which no longer presents the issue when using snappy from Groovy.
