[jira] [Updated] (THRIFT-5339) [Rust] Add `TObject` trait to cover sync read & write methods of Struct/Union/Enum

["Jason Shui (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5339?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jason Shui updated THRIFT-5339:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
Each Struct/Union/Enum generated by thrift-compiler will get two methods: `read_from_in_protocol` and `write_to_out_protocol`. 
Firstly, I think these two methods are representing a certain ability of serialization, so they should be put in a trait;
Moreover, if this trait is provided, we can use trait bounding in out user codes, such as
```rust
// pseudo code
fn serialize_struct<T>(s: T) -> Vec<u8> where T: TObject {
 s.write_to_out_protocol(protocol);
 // do other things..
}
```
It could also be a pretty useful marker trait as you can see.
The name of `TObject` is only a superficial opinion, but I believe that there are enough reasons to make the trait.

  was:TBD
