>
> Sometimes we do schema migrations and it would be cool to be able to have
> deprecation functionality from Thrift. At the most basic level, we should be
> able to annotate a field as deprecated and have the compiler generate
> "@Deprecated" annotations in the Java code.
> Sometimes though, you may want creators of structs to be forced to use new
> fields, but you still want to be able to read the old fields until you have
> everything migrated over. In this case you could mark a field as
> "strong-deprecated" and just not generate any setters for those fields (only
> getters). This would force all users of the struct to migrate to new schema,
> since the code won't compile otherwise.
