Lucas Partridge created THRIFT-2435:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Java compiler
Key: THRIFT-2435
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2435
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Java - Compiler
Affects Versions: 0.9
Reporter: Lucas Partridge
Priority: Minor
The following IDL works fine in Python and C# but generates a compiler error in
Java:
{code}
namespace * test
enum DataType {
Text
}
struct Metadata {
1: string Name,
2: DataType DataType
}
service TestService {
void SendData(1:string Data, 2:Metadata Metadata)
}
{code}
The generated test.Metadata.java file has 2 compile errors:
{{Cannot make a static reference to the non-static field DataType}}
at line 422:
{code}
struct.DataType = DataType.findByValue(iprot.readI32());
{code}
and line 495:
{code}
struct.DataType = DataType.findByValue(iprot.readI32());
{code}
If the IDL is changed to use {{DataType dataType}} instead then the compile
errors don't occur.
This issue is annoying because the same IDL works fine in Python and C#. To
make the IDL work for Java we have to change the IDL, which means we have to
change our Python clients (I haven't checked the C# clients yet). See also
