Bryan Duxbury updated THRIFT-409:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: thrift-409.patch

Here's my first bit of work on this issue. This patch includes some changes to the lexer and parser to add the "union" construct, some changes to the compiler to support unions, and work on the java library and generator to support generating unions. 

There's a small test for the java unions, but it needs to be greatly expanded upon.

> It would be very helpful to have a "union" construct in Thrift. Let's decide on the design and then break up into sub-issues to add this feature.
