----------------------------------

             Summary: C++ code should print enums as strings
                 Key: THRIFT-3921
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3921
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++ - Compiler
            Reporter: Vivek Jain


THRIFT-2067 added {{operator<<}} to the C++ generated code, which is great, but 
enums are printed as numbers rather than their string representation. It would 
be great if the generated code printed them as a string instead. There might be 
some backwards-compatibility concerns (if users have already defined their own 
versions, then thrift's version would cause compile errors), not sure how 
important you guys think those are.

Other thoughts/concerns? I am willing to work on a patch if no one else is able 
to work on it.
