I'm trying to add a java annotation to my avro idl file (avdl file). And I can't seem to figure out how to supply the arguments to the annotation. Here's a simplified example
protocol Message {
record Message {
int @javaAnnotation("java.lang.SuppressWarnings") myInt = 0;
}
}
When I try to compile this I get
error: annotation @SuppressWarnings is missing a default value for the element 'value'
@java.lang.SuppressWarnings
^
1 error
But I don't really see any syntax that would allow me to pass the parameter. Here's the ticket that added this feature https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1186 for reference.
I'm using avro version 1.8.2
and using the gradle-avro plugin version 0.12.0
I anyone could provide some insight, it would be much appreciated.
You may write the annotation as it would appear, escaping the double quotes:
protocol Message {
record Message {
int @javaAnnotation("java.lang.SuppressWarnings(\"unused\")") myInt = 0;
}
}
The Avro compiler does nothing to strip annotation names.
