Nathan Marz commented on THRIFT-226:
------------------------------------
For the same reason set<binary> is just plain broken in Java. Set won't enforce
that the a particular byte[] value appear only once.
> Collections with binary keys or values break equals()

> Key: THRIFT-226
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-226
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler (Java)
> Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
> Fix For: 0.2

>
> In Java, byte[].equals tests object equality, not value equality. As a
> result, if you have two list<binary> (or set<binary>, or map<binary, binary>
> with the same values and you do TBase.equals(), two structs that match by
> value won't return true. If we're going to do value equality, which I think
> we should, then we should make this consistent with collection types.
