James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-3979:
--------------------------------------------
I think what folks are saying is that THeader already exists and allows you to
do this, so why would we need another protocol?
[~jensg] Are you suggesting that we should not come up with a unique session ID
per client as part of the thrift core, but instead leave it up to the
implementation to pass a unique ID as a header if they want their server to be
able to correlate between calls?

> 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 (whatever customers want) 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
