---------------------------------------

             Summary: Expose collection element type information through 
@property comments.
                 Key: THRIFT-2079
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2079
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Cocoa - Compiler
    Affects Versions: 0.9
            Reporter: Zachary Davison
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: thrift-cocoa-collection-type-comments.patch

Currently there is no easy way to know type information of collections in 
generated Cocoa thrift classes (due to obj-c collections not being templated).
This becomes awkward from a documentation point of view as the code is not self 
documenting and assumptions have to be made by the reader based on the type of 
elements inside a collection.

Suggest appending comments after @property declarations to indicate element 
type, eg:

@property (nonatomic, retain, getter=newlist, setter=setNewlist:) 
NSMutableArray * newlist; //  <NSNumber*>
