>                 Key: THRIFT-233
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-233
>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Compiler (General)
>            Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
>            Assignee: Jens Geyer
>            Priority: Trivial
>
> if you try a field def like
> {code}
> i32 my_field = -0x7fff
> {code}
> the compiler complains. If you try to make the value a two's complement negative number without the sign, then it assumes it was supposed to be a long, and the Java compiler chokes on the assignment. 
> It'd be nice if we supported negative hex literals.
