from_avro converts `\uFFFD` to a question mark

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Hi,
we have a scala project leveraing from_avro function, however, when records contains \uFFFD, abris would convert it to a question mark instead of throwing any error, and the question mark is causing issues when we export the record to Teradata. Is there any document for special character handling? how should i do it?

I don't think Abris changes any specific characters like that.

A question mark is normally used for this character, see: https://codepoints.net/U+FFFD?lang=en

Are you sure you are not just seeing \uFFFD as ?, because some editors display it as that?
