             Summary: ProtobufData does not correctly handle nested enums
                 Key: AVRO-1309
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1309
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: java
    Affects Versions: 1.7.4
            Reporter: Steve Zesch
         Attachments: cnfe_protobuf_stack_trace.txt

When an enum is nested in several messages, a ClassNotFoundException is thrown when calling the DataFileWriter append method. I've attached a stack trace.

The offending line (ProtobufData.java 112):
Class c = Class.forName(SpecificData.getClassName(s));

Say we have an enum nested as follows (I've left out some syntax):

message A
  message B
    message C
      enum D

Expected class name: org.foo.bar.A$B$C$D

Actual class name being returned: org.foo.bar.A$D

Only the package name, outer class, and enum class name are being taken into consideration. All parent classes besides the outer class are ignored. Nested messages are not afflicted by the same problem because they are resolved recursively.

Please let me know if you require any more information or if anything is unclear.

Thanks.
