Ben Kelly commented on THRIFT-556:
----------------------------------
I can confirm this is still a problem in thrift 0.8.0. See:
https://github.com/nearinfinity/blur/issues/167
The following patch against the thrift 0.8.x branch fixes the issue for me:

> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Ruby - Compiler
> Reporter: Evan Weaver
>
> Currently, if you set a top-level module for thrift/ruby that's the same name
> as an inner class, thrift does not reference the top level appropriately.
> Example bad code:
> .thrift:
> namespace rb Cassandra
> .rb:
> module Cassandra
> module Cassandra
> class Client
> ...
> COLUMN_PARENT => {:type => ::Thrift::Types::STRUCT, :name =>
> 'column_parent', :class => Cassandra::ColumnParent},
> Ruby checks the inner module first, and does not find the class, raising an
> error.
> The fix is to have every place that references the top-level module prepend
> it with '::':
> COLUMN_PARENT => {:type => ::Thrift::Types::STRUCT, :name =>
> 'column_parent', :class => ::Cassandra::ColumnParent},
