Roger Meier resolved THRIFT-1545.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Generated javascript code uses "for in" for looping over arrays
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-1545
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1545
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JavaScript - Compiler
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Reporter: Larregoity
> Priority: Minor
>
> For lists, generated javascript is like :
> >>
> GetRepairersResponse.prototype.write = function(output){
> output.writeStructBegin('GetRepairersResponse')
> if (null != this.repairers) {
> output.writeFieldBegin('repairers', Thrift.Type.LIST, 1)
> {
> output.writeListBegin(Thrift.Type.STRUCT, this.repairers.length)
> {
> for(var iter62 in this.repairers)
> {
> iter62=this.repairers[iter62]
> iter62.write(output)
> }
> }
> output.writeListEnd()
> }
> output.writeFieldEnd()
> }
> output.writeFieldStop()
> output.writeStructEnd()
> return
> }
> >>
> The use of "for in" generates problems when properties or functions are added
> to the Array object (for instance in the sencha library, that adds the
> "indexOf", "remove" and "contains" methods), because these properties will be
> included in the for loop.
> As said in
> https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Guide/Predefined_Core_Objects,:
> "Since JavaScript elements are saved as standard object properties, it is not
> advisable to iterate through JavaScript arrays using for...in loops because
> normal elements and all enumerable properties will be listed."
> It would be much safer if the generated code used standard for loops to like
> :
> >>
> var colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue'];
> for (var i = 0; i < colors.length; i++) {
> console.log(colors[i]);
> }
> >>
