Roger Meier resolved THRIFT-816.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Cannot Reproduce
Many issues with the JavaScript library are fixed, please open a new ticket
with a test case if you still have that issue.
> returning null for an object, sets it to a dummy object with all zero/default
> values as opposed to returning null.

> Key: THRIFT-816
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-816
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JavaScript - Compiler
> Affects Versions: 0.4
> Reporter: Jordan
>
> Please let me know if this is supposed to be standard behavior or just
> resolve if this is a feature not a bug. This may also be related to the
> problem of lists being deserialized incorrectly.
> Basically if I a data type type:
> ResponseObject {
> 1: ResponseDetail responseDetail
> }
> And I have a service call method that returns something of type ResponseObject
> service TheService {
> ResponseObject makeCall()
> }
> If the implementation of makeCall returns a ResponseObject with
> responseDetail set to null, then on the javascript client I will get a
> ResponseObject with a ResponseDetail that is NOT null. Instead it will be an
> object with not much character to it (all booleans will be false, all numbers
> will be zero etc.) I would expect nulls to come across the wire properly and
> show up as nulls on the client. Am I mistaken?
> Someone please confirm that this is a bug and not an intended feature.
> I will try to track down where this is coming from, but I might get stuck.
> I would really like to get all these bugs ironed out, so if someone could
> dedicate about an hour of their time sometime within the next weak, to have a
> phone conversation about the code base, I can begin to help more effectively
> instead of just filing bug reports.
> I honestly think that this javascript target of thrift is one of the most
> important components of the entire project. I commend the developers and
> would love to help out.
