[jira] Commented: (THRIFT-225) Can't assign some field types a default values

["Bryan Duxbury (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-225?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12653499#action_12653499 ] 

Bryan Duxbury commented on THRIFT-225:
--------------------------------------

Turns out that there are more problems:
 * i16 is affected by the same issue as byte - need a (short) cast
 * byte, i16, and i64 list types need casts when there are default values

> If you have a struct like
> {{{
> struct myStruct {
>   byte x = 200;
> }
> }}}
> then the generated code for that default value lacks the necessary (byte) cast to avoid a "loss of precision" compiler warning. The same is true for i64 values that are larger than an i32, since java assumes all numeric literals are i32s unless they're explicitly longs.
