>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Go - Compiler
>            Reporter: Can Celasun

> Consider the following structs:
> {code}
> struct Foo {
>   1: optional string foo
> }
> struct Bar {
>   1: optional set<Foo> foos
> }
> {code}
> This compiles into the following Go code:
> {code}
> type Bar struct {
> 	Foos map[*Foo]struct{} `thrift:"foos,1" db:"foos" json:"foos,omitempty"`
> }
> {code}
> Even though the generated code has tags for JSON support, Bar can't be serialized to JSON:
> {code}
> json: unsupported type: map[*Foo]struct {}
> {code}
> One solution would be to use slices, not maps, for Thirft sets ands lists. Thoughts?
