Hi [~lcf],

feel free to submit a patch cleaning up the code. I have only modified things 
that already existed. If the stuff is not used at all, it should be removed. 
And it should probably be a new ticket.

> We have PHP frontend and Java backend. Thrift is used for interaction between 
> the two, entities are serialized and deserialized using TJsonProtocol.
> Whenever a string in a thrift entity contains a slash "/", PHP's 
> implementation, that uses {{json_encode}} under the hood, escapes it:
> "Translation eng/rus" => "Translation eng\/rus". So the payload may look like 
> this:
> {noformat}
> {"1":{"str":"Translation  rus\/eng"}}
> {noformat}
> (assuming that the entity only has this one string property)
> Java cannot handle this input and fails with:
> org.apache.thrift.protocol.TProtocolException: Expected control char
> Java does not allow a slash to be escaped. 
> Thrift version is 0.9.1
> Any advice on what to do for a temporary solution? Should we fix Java side or 
> PHP side? 
> As per json.org, a slash CAN be escaped. To me it looks more like Java is not 
> standard compliant in this case. At the same time, however, I don't like the 
> ambiguity of the standard allowing both unescaped and escaped slash.
