-------------------------------------------------
Pull request: https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/489
> Proposal: make String representation of enums in generated go code less
> verbose
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-3144
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3144
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Go - Compiler
> Affects Versions: 0.9.2
> Reporter: Konstantin Shaposhnikov
>
> Generated Go code for enums provides String() and EnumFromString methods for
> enums. E.g.:
> {code}
> func (p TestEnum) String() string {
> switch p {
> case TestEnum_FIRST:
> return "TestEnum_FIRST"
> case TestEnum_SECOND:
> return "TestEnum_SECOND"
> case TestEnum_THIRD:
> return "TestEnum_THIRD"
> case TestEnum_FOURTH:
> return "TestEnum_FOURTH"
> }
> return "<UNSET>"
> }
>
> func TestEnumFromString(s string) (TestEnum, error) {
> switch s {
> case "TestEnum_FIRST":
> return TestEnum_FIRST, nil
> case "TestEnum_SECOND":
> return TestEnum_SECOND, nil
> case "TestEnum_THIRD":
> return TestEnum_THIRD, nil
> case "TestEnum_FOURTH":
> return TestEnum_FOURTH, nil
> }
> }
> {code}
> The current implementation uses enum name as string representation. E.g.
> String(TestEnum_FIRST) = "TestEnum_FIRST" which seems to be unnecessary
> verbose to me.
> I propose to change it to use enum values from the thrift file instead. E.g.:
> {code}
> func (p TestEnum) String() string {
> switch p {
> case TestEnum_FIRST:
> return "FIRST"
> case TestEnum_SECOND:
> return "SECOND"
> case TestEnum_THIRD:
> return "THIRD"
> case TestEnum_FOURTH:
> return "FOURTH"
> }
> return "<UNSET>"
> }
>
> func TestEnumFromString(s string) (TestEnum, error) {
> switch s {
> case "FIRST":
> return TestEnum_FIRST, nil
> case "SECOND":
> return TestEnum_SECOND, nil
> case "THIRD":
> return TestEnum_THIRD, nil
> case "FOURTH":
> return TestEnum_FOURTH, nil
> }
> }
> {code}
> This is also consistent with generated code for other languages (e.g. Python,
> C++).
