Jens Geyer commented on THRIFT-3979: ------------------------------------ You need some part of information. Whether one calls it state, session, header value, ID or something else and under which name it is sent over the wire is completely irelevant. > offer TExtendedBinaryProtocol for customers > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-3979 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3979 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Story > Components: Wish List > 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)
