Attachment: THRIFT-3759-required-fields-that-are-nil-are-silentl.patch
> 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
> Attachments:
> THRIFT-3759-required-fields-that-are-nil-are-silentl.patch
>
>
> 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.
