jonathan created THRIFT-4281: -------------------------------- Summary: Got a NameError when using class defined in ttypes.py Key: THRIFT-4281 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4281 Project: Thrift Issue Type: Bug Components: Python - Compiler Affects Versions: 0.9.2 Environment: Thrift version 0.9.2 Reporter: jonathan
Here the problem happens. See the error first: from ttypes import * File "../gen-py-ofs/ofs/ttypes.py", line 200, in <module> class FeatureGetParams: File "../gen-py-ofs/ofs/ttypes.py", line 210, in FeatureGetParams (2, TType.LIST, 'featureScenes', (TType.STRUCT,(FeatureScene, FeatureScene.thrift_spec)), None, ), # 2 *{color:red}NameError: name 'FeatureScene' is not defined{color}* Class FeatureScene is defined in line 391 of ttype.py, and is used by another class GetParams in line of 200. Then I got this error. I have a test. If I move class FeatureScene to the front of class FeatureGetParams, the error is gone. I googled character of language Python, it did happen in this situation that we must define it at the place before we reference it. So I have a question, if it's true, why doesn't ttypes.py generate two classes in the correct order? It confused me for a while. Hope get your reply, thank you.
