Randy Abernethy commented on THRIFT-3200:
-----------------------------------------
I agree. Node and JS both still have interop gaps to close. We should make them
cross lang compatible asap so that they are inline for v1.
> JS and nodejs do not encode JSON protocol binary fields as base64

> Key: THRIFT-3200
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3200
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JavaScript - Library, Node.js - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.9.2
> Reporter: Adam Beberg
> Fix For: 0.9.3
>
>
> Binary fields in the JSON protocol are base64 encoded in
> cpp/go/java/rb/py/go/... All code with JSON implementations except javascript
> and nodejs - which escape them as if they as strings (unfinished
> implementation). This makes js/nodejs incompatable with any other languages
> since JSON is their only supported protocol. To fix this js/nodejs need to be
> corrected, but this will break backward compatibility.
