Jens Geyer created THRIFT-3759:
----------------------------------
Summary: required fields that are nil are silently ignored on write
Key: THRIFT-3759
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3759
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Delphi - Library
Reporter: Jens Geyer
Assignee: Jens Geyer
Priority: Critical
The Delphi code generated for {{required}} fields silently ignores {{nil}}
values, because {{nil}} values cannot be written. Consequently, the data stored
this way cannot be read later on because of the missing members.
{code}
struct foo {
// leaving this member nil will ignore the field on write
// and thus make the data unreadable
1 : required foo try_to_leave_me_nil
}
{code}
The expected behaviour would be to throw an exception when the code is about to
write required, but unset data.
