T Jake Luciani commented on THRIFT-807:
---------------------------------------

I took a look and I don't think this will work. We would need to initialize all 
types to null including maps and arrays.  I tried doing this and the test fails 
since struct maps now aren't initialized.

I think we need to return null on an error, but haven't had a chance to see 
where this would be possible in the generated code.

> I had a problem with the exception avaliable on the tutorial. 
> i32 calculate(1:i32 logid, 2:Work w) throws (1:InvalidOperation ouch),
> It couldn't be thrown because initialization of numeric base types is done 
> with 0 instead of null and the checks do compare against null.
> This was not visible with the Tests provided with first patch for JavaScript 
> bindings above, the ThriftTest.thrift definition does not have a combination 
> of a base type return value and an exception.
> I've made a patch that initializes the base types I16,I32, I64 and DOUBLE 
> with null. This could probably solve other issues as well
