Philip Frank created THRIFT-4436: ------------------------------------ Summary: Deserialization of nested list discards content Key: THRIFT-4436 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4436 Project: Thrift Issue Type: Bug Components: JavaScript - Library Affects Versions: 0.11.0 Reporter: Philip Frank
I'm trying to transmit a list of lists, like this: {code} service HelloSvc { list<list<string>> test() } {code} Using XHR Transport and JSON Protocol, with a service implementation in Python like this: {code} class HelloSvcHandler: def __init__(self): pass def test(self,): return [ ["s1", "s2"], ["s3", "s4"], ["s5"] ] {code} The serialized response looks good to me (seen in browser development tools): {code} [1,"test",2,0,{"0":{"lst":["lst",3,["str",2,"s1","s2"],["str",2,"s3","s4"],["str",1,"s5"]]}}] {code} However, when deserialized to JavaScript, the result looks like this: {code} [["s1","s2"],[],[]] {code} I would expect it to look like this: {code} [["s1","s2"],["s3","s4"],["s5"]] {code} It looks to me like during JSON deserialization, all but the first entry in the list of lists lose their content. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
