Mario Emmenlauer closed THRIFT-4819.
------------------------------------
    Resolution: Cannot Reproduce

I think this may be related to dynamic linking of Thrift, but I can not reproduce it right now. Closing as "Cannot reproduce".

> In recent versions of thrift we can not catch exceptions based on their IDL type anymore. I'm not sure if we broke something, but the code is sufficiently simple to suggest a bug in thrift. So here is what we have:
>  # A method with signature that can throw a specific exception, i.e. UserException
>  # The C++ server throws this exception whenever the method is called
>  # The C++ client tries to catch this exception but it passes through
> The client can catch the exception as `TException` or as `std::exception` and we can see from the printed message `vException.what()` that its a `UserException`. But catch does not deduce the type correctly.
> Here is the part of the catch that does not work:
> {code}
> try {
>     vClient->SendRequest();
> } catch (const MyService::UserException& vEx) {
>     // Why is this not caught, when the server throws MyService::UserException?
>     std::cerr << "Caught a UserException, message " << vEx.what() << std::endl;
> } catch (const std::exception& vEx) {
>     // Why is this one called instead?
>     std::cerr << "Caught a std::exception, message " << vEx.what() << std::endl;
> }
> {code}
