--------------------------------------
blachniet opened a new pull request #297: AVRO-2156: Map Avro namespace to C#
namespaces during code generation
URL: https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/297
[AVRO-2156](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2156)
Added new optional command line argument, `--namespace
<my.avro.ns:my.csharp.ns>`.
Normally, `avrogen.exe` uses the namespaces defined in the schema or
protocol as the namespace in the generated C# code. This default behavior has
not changed as a part of this pull request. However, if the user wishes to
replace the Avro namespace with a C#-friendly namespace in the generated code,
they can provide the `--namespace` option.
For example, if this is our protocol:
```
// sample.avdl
@namespace("org.example.sample")
protocol MySampleProtocol {
fixed MD5(16);
}
```
`avrogen.exe -p sample.avdl output` would produce something like:
```csharp
// MD5.cs
namespace org.example.sample
{
public partial class MD5 : SpecificFixed //...
}
```
If the user wanted a more C#-friendly namespace in the generated code, the
could run `avrogen.exe -p sample.avdl output --namespace
"org.example.sample:Sample.Models"` to produce something like:
```csharp
// MD5.cs
namespace Sample.Models
{
public partial class MD5 : SpecificFixed //...
}
```
I am open to any suggestions, whether implementation details or command line
interface. Thanks!

> Allow custom namespace for C# generated code

> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: csharp
> Affects Versions: 1.8.2
> Reporter: Brian Lachniet
> Priority: Major
>
> The namespace used in Avro schemas/protocols does not always map nicely to a
> standard C# namespace. Avrogen (the C# code generator) currently uses the
> Avro namespace as the C# namespace. I propose that we update the avrogen
> utility to allow the user to override the namespace used in the generated
> code via a command line parameter.
