[jira] [Issue Comment Edited] (THRIFT-1460) why not add unicode
strings support to python directly?
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1460?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13202467#comment-13202467 ]

-----------------------------------------------------------
This happens for me too. I need to insert the following (unicode) string into cassandra:
{code}u'Shaq\u2013Kobe feud'{code}
Getting nasty python UnicodEncodeErrors with ascii codec.
I am running cassandra 1.0.7 with pycassa 1.4.0 and the [thrift 0.8 package from PyPi|http://pypi.python.org/pypi/thrift/0.8.0].
*Edit://* I did apply the patches myself and pushed them to [a github repo|https://github.com/originell/thrift/]. Did test it with some unicode strings. Seems to work as expected.
