[jira] [Created] (THRIFT-5396) deprecate "Async" method postfix

Jens Geyer created THRIFT-5396:
----------------------------------

             Summary: deprecate "Async" method postfix
                 Key: THRIFT-5396
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5396
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: netstd - Compiler
            Reporter: Jens Geyer
            Assignee: Jens Geyer


The nestdt compiler generates method names witnh "Async" following an older recommendation for async methods in NET. It also helped to distinguish between synchronous and async/await calls in the old "csharp" bindings.

Because with modern NET versions common mainstream (and technically also the only possible way left) to call Thrift methods is now the async style, this postfix has become obsolete and starts to become a burden rather a feature.

Hence, default should be to leave method mames undecorated and instead make the "Async" postfix a compatibility option that must be enabled explicitly.
