Mike Riley commented on THRIFT-1090: ------------------------------------ Should I re-implement this as a language option? From my perspective this is an inconsistency that Java has when compared to the other languages: constants can't be defined in different programs having the same namespace. On the other hand, if there is a consensus that it should be added as an option it wouldn't be so difficult to implement. > Document the generation of a file called "Constants.java" > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-1090 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1090 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Documentation, Java - Library, Website > Reporter: Lars Francke > Priority: Minor > Attachments: thrift-1090.patch > > > A file called "Constants.java" is generated per thrift file that includes any > constants.
