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

             Summary: build of test/cpp/src/TestClient.cpp fails with newer gcc on platforms with unsigned char due to narrowing conversions
                 Key: THRIFT-3831
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3831
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Cody Schafer
         Attachments: 0001-test-cpp-explicitly-use-signed-char.patch

Specifically, we get a bunch of errors like:

            test/cpp/src/TestClient.cpp:404:15: error: narrowing conversion of '-1' from 'int' to 'char' inside { } [-Wnarrowing]

gcc faq talks about this: https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/FAQ#Wnarrowing

I've only seen this in gcc-6, but the faq seems to indicate it could occur in gcc-5 as well.
