I'm not doing any conversion of types as far as I know. Defining the
attr as a double in thrift, then in python:
p = Price()
p.total = 0.9
client.setPrice(p)
And for the server:
def setPrice(self, p):
print p
And I get an output of 0.90000002

What happens when you convert 0.9 to float and back to double again?
Also what happens if you pass your value through thrift via a double
instead of a float.
Remember that 0.9 has no exact representation in base 2.

I've written both a client and server in python. When I pass an
object
which contains a float (eg: 0.9) from the client to the server the
value changes (eg: the server prints 0.90000000000000002). I'm using
the latest svn version.
Am I missing something obvious?
