--------------------------------------------------------------
Mmmh. I'm not sure.
http://wiki.apache.org/thrift/ThriftTypes states that all integers are *signed*
types. Byte is not signed, but ShortInt is.
I have checked some of the other generators:
* All signed integers: C++, Java, XSD, AS3, C-GLib
* Haskell: not 100% sure, but seems to be signed as well
* C# unsigned "byte", but all others as signed integers
* Cocoa unsigned "byte", but all others as signed integers
So (if we leave Delphi out) we have a count of 6:2 for signed 8-bit integers
(but remember: i haven't checked them all). Jake, what's the official opinion
here? Is a Thrift "byte" signed or unsigned?
