Hi All
I ran into a case where thrift generated code that would not compile
For the following data definition:
*struct lstMember {
1: required i16 data1,
}
struct someStruct {
1: required list<lstMember> lst = [{'data1':1}]
}
*
With the following generation
*thrift -r -o generated --gen "cpp:pure_enums" t1.thrift*
I get the following compilation errors:
*g++ -MD -I/usr/local/include/thrift -Igenerated/gen-cpp -c
generated/gen-cpp/t1_types.cpp*
*generated/gen-cpp/t1_types.h: In constructor ‘someStruct::someStruct()’:
generated/gen-cpp/t1_types.h:59: error: ‘class lstMember’ has no member
named ‘__isset’
*
Observation:
The generated struct seems to have no 'isset' (internal) for required
members (totally expected)
yet the generated constructor attempts to set the isset (internal) member
Workaround:
If its not critical, make the data members 'optional' to force generation of
the isset members
Questions:
1. Anything wrong in my thrift file?
2. Should this email e considered a bug report or do I need to enter
something in JIRA?
