Compiler warning on generated code (Multiface kills -Wall -Werror on gcc 4.6.1)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-1398
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1398
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: C++ - Compiler
    Affects Versions: 0.7, 0.6
         Environment: g++ v4.6.1, with all warnings enabled -Wall, using the 
purist "treat warnings as errors" -Werror flag.  No optimization flags
            Reporter: Nevo Hed


I use an older version of g++ (4.1.2) but some of my fellow team members who 
are using a more recent version (4.6.1)
they are reporting that (when used with '-Wall') g++, justifiably complains 
about the second 


  int32_t calculate(const int32_t logid, const Work& w) {
    size_t sz = ifaces_.size();
    for (size_t i = 0; i < sz; ++i) {
      if (i == sz - 1) {
        return ifaces_[i]->calculate(logid, w);
      } else {
        ifaces_[i]->calculate(logid, w);
      }
    }
  }


Though a human reading this code can see that the last loop execution results 
in a return, the compiler can't
     "error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]"

I would add a generation-time option to suppress multiface if that seems 
reasonable

At this time we find that we need to eother disable the warning or up the 
optimization (or both?)
