    a comment showing an example of the python code generated from this peace 
of code would be a plus

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2642
>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Python - Compiler, Python - Library
>    Affects Versions: 0.9.2
>            Reporter: Igor Kostenko
>            Assignee: Eric Conner
>
> 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
> {code}
