-----------------------------------
Assignee: Yuxuan Wang
> Typedef after first use causes incorrect go code
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-5601
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5601
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Go - Compiler
> Reporter: Yuxuan Wang
> Assignee: Yuxuan Wang
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently if a typedef happens after it's first used, the compiler will
> generate incorrect (uncompilable) go code.
> For example, for this thrift file:
>
> {code:java}
> struct Bar {
> 1: optional Foo foo,
> }
> typedef i32 Foo {code}
> The generated go code would be:
>
>
> {code:java}
> ...
> type Foo int32
> ...
> type Bar struct {
> Foo *int32 `thrift:"foo,1" db:"foo" json:"foo,omitempty"`
> }
> ...
> func (p *Bar) ReadField1(ctx context.Context, iprot thrift.TProtocol) error {
> if v, err := iprot.ReadI32(ctx); err != nil {
> return thrift.PrependError("error reading field 1: ", err)
> } else {
> temp := Foo(v)
> p.Foo = &temp
> }
> return nil
> }{code}
> If we move the typedef to be before it's used, then generated go code would
> be:
>
>
> {code:java}
> ...
> type Bar struct {
> Foo *Foo `thrift:"foo,1" db:"foo" json:"foo,omitempty"`
> }
> ...{code}
> instead.
> Interestingly the compiler knows that the field should be of type int32 (if
> we change the typedef to string it would be string instead), so it's not like
> the compiler don't know about the typedef at all, it's just not using the
> correct typedef in the go code.
