You can give the B field a default value which will cause it to be
initialized on "new A()". It would look something like:
struct B {
...
}
struct A {
B my_b = {};
}

Hello,
I have been using Thrift to integrate some of network monitoring
tools. I am using struct containment so that I do not have to
redefine entire struct every time. But I noticed that if a struct,
named A, contains B then when new A() is issued B is not
initialized. This then requires us in the code to initialize the
inner struct. I do realize this is a minor issue but nonetheless it
is slightly annoying. Is there any particular reason for this? Or
can I go ahead and prepare a patch for this? (I'll be away in the
next weeks so it may take a while before the patch is ready.)
Cheers,
