>                 Key: AVRO-1545
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1545
>             Project: Avro
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: python
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.6

> Given the following avsc file:
> {
>   "type" : "record",
>   "name" : "BrokenRecord",
>   "namespace" : "whatever",
>   "fields" : [ {
>     "name" : "a_string",
>     "type" : {
>       "type" : "string",
>       "avro.java.string" : "String"
>     }
>   } ]
> }
> The python schema parser discards the avro.java.string marker, which breaks interoperability with java. In schema.py, it discards the other property information and compresses the type down to just a 'string'.
> Patch attached against the 1.7.6 release.
