Alexander Shigin commented on THRIFT-395:
-----------------------------------------
You misunderstand me.
Here is a trivial snippet of my current code:
{code}
result = service.query(request.encode('utf-8'))
{code}
It can't work with the patch. "*-remote" helper can't work with the patch. The
patch really breaks compatibility.
> Python library + compiler does not support unicode strings

> Key: THRIFT-395

> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler (Python), Library (Python)
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Assignee: Jonathan Ellis
> Priority: Blocker
> Attachments: python-utf8.patch

> Effectively, all strings in the python bindings are treated as binary strings
> -- no encoding/decoding to UTF-8 is done. So if a unicode object is passed
> to a (regular, non-binary) string, an exception is raised.
