[jira] [Updated] (AVRO-1924) Variable named 'date' in IDL
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1924?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Sean Busbey updated AVRO-1924:
------------------------------
Affects Version/s: 1.8.1
> Variable named 'date' in IDL
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1924
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1924
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Reporter: Niels Basjes
> Assignee: Ryan Blue
> Priority: Critical
>
> I was compiling Apache Parquet and found that the switch from Avro 1.8.0 to 1.8.1 broke their build.
> The error: {code}
> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.avro:avro-maven-plugin:1.8.1:idl-protocol (schemas) ...
> org.apache.avro.compiler.idl.ParseException: Encountered " "date" "date "" at line 23, column 14.
> [ERROR] Was expecting one of:
> [ERROR] <IDENTIFIER> ...
> [ERROR] "@" ...
> [ERROR] "`" ...
> [ERROR] -> [Help 1]
> {code}
> As it turns out they have a test idl that contains this:
> {code}
> @namespace("org.apache.parquet.avro")
> protocol Cars {
> record Service {
> long date;
> }
> }
> {code}
> And this change AVRO-1684 turned the word 'date' into something different for the idl compiler.
> So changing the word 'date' into something else fixes the problem.
> Yet I think this is an undesirable effect for end user applications.
> [~rdblue]: I assigned this to you implemented the mentioned change.
