[jira] Commented: (THRIFT-65) Enabling 64-bit integer constants

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-65?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12608905#action_12608905 ] 

Kevin Clark commented on THRIFT-65:
-----------------------------------

Ruby should be ok, but I agree we should warn until there's uniformity across the libraries.

> The Thrift compiler currently parses integer constants as 32-bit numbers.  This patch allows 64-bit numbers to be used, but it does not verify that the individual language generators handle them properly.  What  would you all think about committing this?  Should we include a warning until we verify that all of the generators handle 64-bit numbers properly (or at least fail safely)?
