Hi Tarun, I don't think the comments have ever made it through to the generated C++ source.
The compiler is not difficult to modify, if you are so inclined, and this is a change that I'm sure would be happily taken back into the project. In the sources I work from (admittedly old, but I doubt the layout has changed) the file of interest is this: compiler/cpp/src/generate/t_cpp_generator.cc. The corresponding java code generator is next to it, so you just need to compare the two to see how the comments make it into the java code. (I didn't look.) - Rush On Apr 1, 2013, at 9:23 PM, Tarun Goyal wrote: > Hi Roger, > > It is possible for java.
