Vanja Bucic commented on THRIFT-1766: ------------------------------------- [^thrift-1.0.0-dev-rb-binary.patch] adds 'binary' string attribute checking and appropriate method dispatch to struct.c I am wondering how did the original patch work without thrift_native.c, constants.h, and struct.c having any reference to binary string type and associated methods? > [Ruby] Provide support for binary types > --------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-1766 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1766 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Ruby - Library > Affects Versions: 0.9 > Reporter: Nathan Beyer > Assignee: Nathan Beyer > Attachments: THRIFT-1766-provide-support-for-binary-types.patch, > thrift-1.0.0-dev-rb-binary.patch > > > The Ruby library didn't provide explicit support for 'binary' types, which > sort of worked on Ruby 1.8.7 and with Thrift 0.8, but it doesn't work with > Ruby 1.9.3 and the encoding changes that were included with Thrift 0.9. > This issue is intended to provide first class support for the 'binary' type. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
