----------------------------------------
Github user ChristopherRogers commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/1084
I noticed you haven't special cased unions (they'll just be generated as
structs.) Have you looked into adding support for this? I'd love to be able to
use Swift's enums with Thrift's union types.

> Key: THRIFT-3773
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3773
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Swift - Library
> Reporter: Thomas Bartelmess
>
> We already have the option to generate Swift code in the Cocoa compiler,
> however large parts of the (Objective-C) Cocoa Library still depend on Cocoa
> and Objective-C.
> It would be good to have a native Swift library that doesn't depend on the
> Cocoa libraries.
> Design goals:
> - Fully compatible with the code that is currently generated by the Cocoa
> compiler (both Objective-C and Swift).
> - Ability to run on Linux
> - Pure Swift, no Objective-C code.
> - No dependencies on closed source apple libraries
> - Keep the same interface, so that the library is compatible with the code
> the current cocoa compiler generates
> - Better server support that the current Objective-C library.
> - Follow the new Swift packaging format to be compatible with the Swift
> Package manager
