-------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Nested schema reference with empty namespace cannot be parsed

> Key: AVRO-1473

>
> Related to AVRO-1295, a reference to a nested named schema with an empty
> namespace cannot be parsed. An example of such a schema is as follows:
> {code}
> {
> "type" : "record",
> "name" : "Outer",
> "namespace" : "space",
> "fields" : [ {
> "name" : "f1",
> "type" : {
> "type" : "record",
> "name" : "Inner",
> "namespace" : "",
> "fields" : [ ]
> }
> }, {
> "name" : "f2",
> "type" : "Inner"
> } ]
> }
> {code}
> Attempting to parse this results in the following exception:
> org.apache.avro.SchemaParseException: "Inner" is not a defined name. The type
> of the "f2" field must be a defined name or a \{"type": ...\} expression.
> The issue seems to be that the lookup for the name "Inner" is done with the
> namspace of the encoding record, and not with the empty namespace for this
> case.
