Augment FieldValueMetaData so it differentiates 'string' and 'binary' fields. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: THRIFT-946 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-946 Project: Thrift Issue Type: Improvement Components: Java - Compiler, Java - Library Affects Versions: 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7 Reporter: Mathias Herberts Priority: Minor String fields are not differentiated from binary fields in the meta data map. This is sometimes problematic when manipulating Thrift structs in tools such as Pig. The included patch extends FieldValueMetaData with 'isBinary' field and method and modifies the java compiler so generated code correctly reflects the binary nature of fields in the meta data. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
