Jens Geyer reassigned THRIFT-233:
---------------------------------
Assignee: Jens Geyer
> IDL doesn't support negative hex literals
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-233
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-233
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler (General)
> Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
> Assignee: Jens Geyer
> Priority: Trivial
>
> if you try a field def like
> {code}
> i32 my_field = -0x7fff
> {code}
> the compiler complains. If you try to make the value a two's complement
> negative number without the sign, then it assumes it was supposed to be a
> long, and the Java compiler chokes on the assignment.
> It'd be nice if we supported negative hex literals.
