David Reiss commented on THRIFT-455:
------------------------------------
What about the current default behavior, where fields are assumed present in
C++, but not required when reading?
> Compiler flag to make optiona/required field modifiers compulsory
> -----------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: THRIFT-455

> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Compiler (General)
> Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
>
> if we are unwilling to globally require users specify "required" or
> "optional" when creating their structs, I think we should at least add a
> command line switch that causes us to enforce that behavior. It would
> certainly make my implementations more reliable, especially when I'm giving
> non-experts the tools to make their own IDLs.
