Hello,

I am trying to port one of my services to Thrift, which by the way I think is a fantastic tool.

The service interface advertises a generic return type for some functions. This is because, a priori, the server does not know what datatype the incoming the request will generate

So, is it possible to define structs or lists which can contain generic types? If not, how hard would it be to implement this? I assume this would break support for some languages that do not support generic typing.

Thanks for your help,
