James E. King III resolved THRIFT-3029.
---------------------------------------
       Resolution: Won't Do
         Assignee: James E. King III
    Fix Version/s: 1.0

As support for the older cocoa compiler and library have been removed (see THRIFT-4719), all of the issues in Jira related to that code have also been removed.  For legacy cocoa support you can use version 0.12.0 - everyone is expected to move to swift if they want to use the next release of Thrift.

> Using a thrift file such as:
> {code:title=foo.thrift|borderStyle=solid}
> struct Foo {
>   1: required i32 Bar;
>   2: required i32 baz;
> }
> {code}
> The generated Objective-C object, "baz" will have working getters but "Bar" will not. For example, after setting bar to 5 and baz to 9, I get the following output depending on the syntax:
> {code}
> [foo bar] => 0
> [foo Bar] (private method invoked by performSelector) => 5
> foo.bar => 0
> foo.Bar => 0
> foo.baz => 9
> {code}
> The problem is that the generated header specifies a lowercase getter:
> {code:}
> @property (nonatomic, getter=bar, setter=setBar:) int32_t Bar;
> {code}
> Whereas the .m file uses uppercase:
> {code}
> - (int32_t) Bar {
>   return __Bar;
> }
> {code}
> When the Objective-C compiler sees that there is no lowercase getter implementation provided, it automatically generates one (this is supposed to be a convenience of the @property syntax). So effectively, two getters are defined: a lowercase one that does not work, and an uppercase one that does work but is private.
> As a workaround one can define all their fields beginning with a lowercase letter, if possible.
