> A patch to the OCaml generator which uses default values defined in the .thrift file to initialize the members of the generated class.
> I've prepared an OCaml generator patch against the current Thrift SVN trunk. The generated code:
> * makes unwrapped types for all fields for which default values are defined,
> * honors the protocol-centric semantics for the "required" field: such fields are always serialized,
> * throws exception instead of skipping "required" fields which do not have a set value,
> * avoids encoding values of "optional" and absent-requiredness fields if the field value is structurally equivalent to the field's default value,
> * does not break compatibility with C++ receivers,
> * is drop-in compatibe with OCaml code generated by the OCaml generator in the unmodified trunk
> For the full description of changes see paragraph 3.2 in http://lionet.livejournal.com/66899.html
