BELUGA BEHR commented on THRIFT-4709:
-------------------------------------
I have a patch for this once [THRIFT-4694] is completed.
> 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
> Priority: Minor
>
> 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.
