BELUGA BEHR created THRIFT-4709:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Use StandardCharset UTF-8
Key: THRIFT-4709
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4709
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java - Library
Affects Versions: 0.12.0
Reporter: BELUGA BEHR
AS I understand it, starting with Java 1.7, all JVM must support the UTF-8
charset. Prior to JDK 7, it was required to do something like:
{code:java|title=TJSONProtocol.java}
try {
byte[] buf = str.getBytes("UTF-8");
trans_.write(buf);
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException uex) {
throw new TException("JVM DOES NOT SUPPORT UTF-8");
}
{code}
However, now there is available {{java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets}} which
provides the required charsets and therefore there is no longer a need to do a
try/catch to encode/decode Strings and UTF-8 byte arrays. This will save on
lines of code and removes the overhead of the try/catch block.
