Bryan Duxbury updated THRIFT-223:
---------------------------------
Patch Info: [Patch Available]
Except for the field-values-getter on generated structs, I think that this
patch is ready to go.
> Validate method should check that enum types are assigned valid values

> The validate method generated currently checks that required fields are set.
> It would be nice if it were to enforce more parts of the schema. One example
> of this are the values assigned to enum types. For example, if I have this
> enum:
> enum MyEnum {
> FOO = 1;
> BAR = 3;
> BAZ = 4;
> BIZ = 5;
> }
> and this struct:
> struct MyStruct {
> MyEnum e;
> }
> The validate method would ensure that MyStruct#e is either 1, 3, 4, or 5.
> The naive way of implementing this would be to generate a conditional
> statement for every value, aka
> "e==1 || e==3 || e==4 || e==5"
> A better implementation would generate something like:
> "e==1 || (e>=3 && e<=5)"
> Since the common case seems to be having large ranges of contiguous values,
> this is the difference between having N conditionals execute versus 2.
