Jens Geyer commented on THRIFT-2063: ------------------------------------ {quote} In my opinion this should be accepted as a constraint to avoid the complexity cost of maintaining our own map/set/list implementations. {quote} While I agree with the effort, I have some doubts if a half-baked library implementation will be of much use. Just an idea, as an discussion starter: Could some/most/all of the code required to do this {quote} The comparison operators == and != must be fully defined for operands of the key type; thus the key type must not be a function, map, or slice. If the key type is an interface type, these comparison operators must be defined for the dynamic key values; failure will cause a run-time panic. {quote} be generated as well? > Go compiler cannot create code for maps with a map as key > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-2063 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2063 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Go - Compiler > Reporter: Remo Hertig > > trying to generate code for ThriftTest leads to: > {code} > ../../compiler/cpp/thrift --gen go ../ThriftTest.thrift > [WARNING:/tbHD/Home/nairboon/dev/thrift/test/ThriftTest.thrift:41] No > generator named 'noexist' could be found! > [WARNING:/tbHD/Home/nairboon/dev/thrift/test/ThriftTest.thrift:42] cpp > generator does not accept 'noexist' as sub-namespace! > Error: Cannot produce a valid type for a Go map key: map[int32]bool - > aborting.{code} > the affected struct seems to be #3: > {code} > struct CrazyNesting { > 1: string string_field, > 2: optional set<Insanity> set_field, > 3: required list< map<set<i32>,map<i32,set<list<map<Insanity,string>>>>>> > list_field, > 4: binary binary_field > } > {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
