[jira] Commented: (THRIFT-947) Provide a helper method to determine the TProtocol used to serialize some data.

["Bryan Duxbury (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Bryan Duxbury commented on THRIFT-947:
--------------------------------------

This is kind of interesting. One bit of reasoning you have in there could be improved: if the data ends with a }, then it cannot be compact protocol, since compact protocol will always end on a 0 byte.

> The proposed new feature offers a method which applies a heuristic to determine the TProtocol used from the serialized data.
