Thrift Experts,Is there any way to make a thrift message with a longer integer read an older message definition with a smaller integer?
struct Thing_original {
1: i16 idx,
}
struct Thing_newer {
1: i32 idx,
}
I'd like to be able to have Thing_newer read *both* kinds of idx. Simple
tests show that this does not work.
Is there a way to tell Thing_newer to fallback to looking for (idx, i16) if it cannot find (idx, i32)?
