Morten Lied Johansen created THRIFT-2616:
--------------------------------------------
Summary: Double constant that happens to be a whole number
(integer) gets converted to int in generated code
Key: THRIFT-2616
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2616
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Python - Compiler
Affects Versions: 0.9.1
Reporter: Morten Lied Johansen
Priority: Minor
In Python, the value you use to initialize a constant determines the type it
has. When a constant is declared as a double, it should be a double in the
generated code, even if it happens to be possible to represent it as an int.
Example:
{code}
const double RADIUS = 15.0;
{code}
will generate the following Python:
{code}
RADIUS = 15
{code}
it should have generated this:
{code}
RADIUS = 15.0
{code}
Most of the time this is not going to be a problem, but every now and then you
get some wrong results when doing math with different types.
