David Reiss commented on THRIFT-779:
------------------------------------
It also increases the complexity of Thrift and decreases the consistency
between languages.
> PHP - enums as string
> ---------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-779
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-779
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Compiler (PHP), Library (PHP)
> Reporter: Jan Dolecek
> Priority: Minor
> Original Estimate: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0.5h

> I've created patch for php code generator and for php library, which will
> allow you to use string in enums (these string will be converted from/to
> integers while receiving/sending).
> Example:
> // thrift definition
> enum CheckService {
> ping = 1,
> ssh = 2,
> http = 3,
> telnet = 4,
> }
> Now, you can send as value 'ping' or 1, the protocol will always transfer I32
> of value 1.
> When receiving on other side, 1 is automatically converted to 'ping'.
> By default, this patch has no effect. To turn on the conversion, you have to
> activate on whole thrift by
> TBase::$allowEnumConversion = true;
> or per struct MyStruct::$allowEnumConversion = true; which will turn on
> convertion for all enums directly accessible from this struct (but not in
> structs on deeper level)
> (this patch includes patch for namespaces, I posted some days before)
> Link 1 (php library patch):
> http://helemik.cz/juzna/opensource/php/thrift/p-enum.patch
> Link 2 (php compiler patch):
> http://helemik.cz/juzna/opensource/php/thrift/p-enum2.patch
> (Is it possible to join in to upstream? Please, someone "who's in" charge,
> concat me on my email or on IRC)
