Restrict map keys to integers and strings only
----------------------------------------------
Key: THRIFT-428
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-428
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Compiler (General)
Affects Versions: 0.1
Reporter: Chad Walters
Fix For: 0.1
For the sake of better interoperability, particularly with PHP, it would be a
good idea to restrict map keys to be only of integer and string type. Handling
of structures and containers as key types is a pretty mixed bag across the main
supported languages (David Reiss will elaborate on this).
I'd like us to consider doing this for 0.1 so it's in there for the first
official Apache release.
