I just wish this were documented better.
You mean, even better documented as here?
http://thrift.apache.org/docs/idl/
Namespace
A namespace declares which namespaces/package/module/etc. the type
definitions in this file will be declared in for the target languages. The
namespace scope indicates which language the namespace applies to; a scope
of '*' indicates that the namespace applies to all target languages.
[5] Namespace ::= ( 'namespace' ( NamespaceScope Identifier ) |
( 'smalltalk.category'
STIdentifier ) |
( 'smalltalk.prefix' Identifier ) )
|
( 'php_namespace' Literal ) |
( 'xsd_namespace' Literal )
[6] NamespaceScope ::= '*' | 'cpp' | 'java' | 'py' | 'perl' | 'rb' |
'cocoa' | 'csharp'

Works for me! I just wish this were documented better.

Subject: Reducing namespace boilerplate?
If I want my .thrift to be compatible with C++ and Java, I think I have to
write both:
namespace cpp com.blah.blah
and:
namespace java com.blah.blah
Which seems redundant when the namespaces are the same. I'd much rather
write something like:
namespace com.blah.blah
And just let all languages use the same namespace scheme. But thrift 0.9.0
doesn't seem to support this, throwing an empty compile error about
syntax.
Is there a way to do this in current Thrift? Are there plans in the future
to support the syntax I'm after?
