Nevo Hed updated THRIFT-1130:
-----------------------------
Description:
When specifying a default value for an optional struct member of the type bool
the user now needs to enter a numeric value (0, or 1). It would be nice if
they could specify a symbolic value such as 'true' & 'false'
Example thrift file:
struct AtscStrmRecordRequestT {
1: optional bool bDoSomething = true,
2: required string whatever;
}
With current error
{quote}
$ /opt/thrift-0.6.0/compiler/cpp/thrift --gen cpp /rtmp/x.thrift
[ERROR:/rtmp/x.thrift:2] (last token was 'true')
Cannot use reserved language keyword: "true"
{quote}
