Do you want to do that? > offer TExtendedBinaryProtocol for customers > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-3979 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3979 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Story > Components: C++ - Library, Java - Library > Affects Versions: 0.9.3 > Reporter: Xiaoshuang LU > > Sometimes, customers wanna put some options (username, password, id, etc.) in > each request and response. And these options ought to be transparent for > applications. > Unfortunately, thrift protocol does not have good extensibility for extra > functionalities. I would like to propose the following solution to address > this issue. > 1. TMessage adds a new field called "options" > 2. customers set "options" > 3. TExtendedBinaryProtocol writes "options" when "writeMessageBegin" invoked > 4. TExtendedBinaryProtocol reads "options" when "readMessageBegin" invoked -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
