>             Project: Avro
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Anthony Hsu
>             Fix For: 1.8.2
>
>         Attachments: dec.avro
>

> According to http://avro.apache.org/docs/1.8.2/spec.html#Decimal
> bq. For the purposes of schema resolution, two schemas that are {{decimal}} logical types _match_ if their scales and precisions match.
> This is not enforced.
> I wrote a file with (precision 5, scale 2) and tried to read it with a reader schema with (precision 3, scale 1). I expected an AvroTypeException to be thrown, but none was thrown.
> Test data file attached. The code to read it is:
> {noformat:title=ReadDecimal.java}
> import java.io.File;
> import org.apache.avro.Schema;
> import org.apache.avro.file.DataFileReader;
> import org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumReader;
> import org.apache.avro.generic.GenericRecord;
> import org.apache.avro.io.DatumReader;
> public class ReadDecimal {
>   public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
>     Schema schema = new Schema.Parser().parse("{\n" + "  \"type\" : \"record\",\n" + "  \"name\" : \"some_schema\",\n"
>         + "  \"namespace\" : \"com.howdy\",\n" + "  \"fields\" : [ {\n" + "    \"name\" : \"name\",\n"
>         + "    \"type\" : \"string\"\n" + "  }, {\n" + "    \"name\" : \"value\",\n" + "    \"type\" : {\n"
>         + "      \"type\" : \"bytes\",\n" + "      \"logicalType\" : \"decimal\",\n" + "      \"precision\" : 3,\n"
>         + "      \"scale\" : 1\n" + "    }\n" + "  } ]\n" + "}");
>     DatumReader<GenericRecord> datumReader = new GenericDatumReader<>(schema);
>     // dec.avro has precision 5, scale 2
>     DataFileReader<GenericRecord> dataFileReader = new DataFileReader<>(
>         new File("/tmp/dec.avro"), datumReader);
>     GenericRecord foo = null;
>     while (dataFileReader.hasNext()) {
>       foo = dataFileReader.next(foo);  // AvroTypeException expected due to change in scale/precision but none occurs
>     }
>   }
> }
> {noformat}
