[jira] [Updated] (THRIFT-2639) c_glib: Expose as properties members of generated structs

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2639?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Simon South updated THRIFT-2639:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: thrift-2639-5-c_glib-do-not-use-std-to_string.patch

Jens, please try the patch I've just attached, which uses an {{ostringstream}} in place of calls to {{std::to_string}}.

> Currently the c_glib compiler generates a GObject class for each Thrift struct, with a corresponding field for each of the struct's members. However it doesn't register the members as properties of the object, expecting client code to instead access the object's fields directly&mdash;an unconventional and bad practice.
> This set of patches changes the compiler so it exposes struct members as object properties, allowing them to be accessed and modified in the conventional manner. (This doesn't _prevent_ objects' fields from being accessed directly, though, so existing code will continue to work.)
> The changes are, in order:
> # Initialize list members with their default values, if specified, in the constructor of generated struct classes. (Not strictly tied to this issue, but used in the test cases I'm submitting.)
> # Add {{get_min_value}} and {{get_max_value}} methods to {{t_enum}}, allowing the compiler to determine the valid range for properties representing an enumerated type.
> # Output a property enumeration, property setter and property getter for each generated class representing a struct, and register the class' properties in its class initializer.
> # Gently reformat {{testdebugproto.c}} (as I have now completely rewritten it) so my previous work matches the structure of this current work.
