Thrift compiler does not allow two different enum's to have the same key name
for one of the enum values
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: THRIFT-895
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-895
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Compiler (General)
Affects Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Tony Kinnis
As of version 0.4.0 the Thrift compiler no longer allows two different enums to
have a key with the same name. It seems that this change was introduced by the
patch for THRIFT-544. Particularly the patch labeled:
thrift-544_prevent_redefining_consts.patch.
The problem with this patch is that it now blocks this seemingly valid
definition.
enum Foo {
A=1,
B=2
}
enum Bar {
A=1,
B=2
}
If I then run the thrift compiler as follows....
thrift --gen java test.thrift
It will tell me that: test.thrift:7] Enum A is already defined!
However, this should be valid and has worked in previous versions of Thrift. I
believe this patch (thrift-544_prevent_redefining_consts.patch) should be
rolled back.
