> Currently there is no easy way to know type information of collections in generated Cocoa thrift classes (due to obj-c collections not being templated).
> This becomes awkward from a documentation point of view as the code is not self documenting and assumptions have to be made by the reader based on the type of elements inside a collection.
> Suggest appending comments after @property declarations to indicate element type, eg:
> @property (nonatomic, retain, getter=newlist, setter=setNewlist:) NSMutableArray * newlist; //  <NSNumber*>
