julien greard commented on THRIFT-2642:
---------------------------------------
Right now, I have a workaround, I have to edit the generated files by hand.
It's working, but each time I update my objects data structure or create new
ones, I have to do it. I just need to know if this bugs is major enought
according to Thrift community's point of view to be fixed soon for my ^next
developements: I can use recursive data struct if this bug is fixed soon,
otherwise, I'll find another pattern, no worries ^^
> Recursive structs don't work in python

> Key: THRIFT-2642

> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python - Compiler, Python - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.9.2
> Reporter: Igor Kostenko

> Recursive structs in 0.9.2 work fine in c++ & c#, but not in python, because
> generated code trying to use objects which not constructed yet.
> Struct:
> {code}
> struct Recursive {
> 1: list<Recursive> Children
> }
> {code}
> Python code:
> {code}
> class Recursive:
> thrift_spec = (
> None, # 0
> (1, TType.LIST, 'Children', (TType.STRUCT,(Recursive,
> Recursive.thrift_spec)), None, ), # 1
> )
> {code}
> Error message:
> {code}
> Traceback (most recent call last):
> File "ttypes.py", line 20, in <module>
> class Recursive:
> File "ttypes.py", line 28, in Recursive
> (1, TType.LIST, 'Children', (TType.STRUCT,(Recursive,
> Recursive.thrift_spec)), None, ), # 1
> NameError: name 'Recursive' is not defined
