[jira] Created: (THRIFT-275) Remove deprecated classes from Ruby library

Remove deprecated classes from Ruby library
-------------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-275
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-275
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Library (Ruby)
            Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
            Priority: Minor


There are a lot of weirdly named files in the Ruby Thrift library in order for backwards compatibility to work. I think this is of dubious value, and is really confusing. The deprecation code is also very complicated. 

I think we should just get rid of the backwards-compatibility deprecated stuff. We're pre-version 1.0, so better to get all the big changes in now.

------------------------------------

I'm alright with this, as long as we well document the changes. Right now anyone pulling trunk would be getting the dep warnings, but those waiting for a new release would just see breakage.

[jira] Updated: (THRIFT-275) Remove deprecated classes from Ruby library

Posted by "Bryan Duxbury (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-275?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Bryan Duxbury updated THRIFT-275:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: thrift-275.patch

This patch removes all the deprecation stuff and the t*.rb classes that were only placeholders. In addition, I've changed the implementations of some "abstract" methods to throw NotImplementedError instead of returning nil, and fixed the test accordingly. Finally, I removed the no longer required borrow and consume methods from all the transport implementations that had them. (Borrow and consume have been supplanted by the thrift_native package.)

All the specs and unit test pass, so I think the job is done. It seems like the only documentation that needs to be made is to indicate that when you see 

{code}no such file "thrift/thrift"{code}

you just change it to 

{code}require "thrift"{code}

and your problems more or less go away. (You will have to replace the T with Thrift:: on some declarations, but that's pretty easy too.)

I'd love to have this reviewed and get it committed.
