[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-1436) Take advantage of Avro IDL includes

["Stu Hood (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1436?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12904821#action_12904821 ] 

Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-1436:
-------------------------------------

Gary pointed out that since we aren't dealing with identical schemas, removing the duplication might be impossible. But Doug pointed out that Avro 1.4 supports aliasing: "so you can alias a schema into another namespace so it will resolve.". Still, potentially painful and ugly.

> Cassandra is currently using duplicated records for (Ks|Cf|*)Def in the public and private protocols: taking advantage of AVRO-495 would allow us to remove this duplication.
