------------------------------------
Summary: Ruby structs do not validate optional members
Key: THRIFT-3016
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3016
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Ruby - Compiler
Affects Versions: 0.9.2
Reporter: Adam Hawkins
The ruby library's {{Thrift::Struct#validate}} method does not check optional
members. This is a vital method because it determines if a message should be
sent to a client. Consider a protocol with a struct used as a response message.
That struct contains an optional struct {{foo}} with optional member {{a}} &
required member {{b}}. If {{foo}} is set to a struct without {{a}} that is
fine. If {{foo}} is set to a struct without {{b}} validate succeeds and an bad
message is sent to a client. The client receives the a
{{Thrift::TransportException}} instead of a {{Thrift::ProtocolException}},
