---------------------------------

    Attachment: THRIFT-1766-provide-support-for-binary-types.patch

[^THRIFT-1766-provide-support-for-binary-types.patch]

This patch enables support for the 'binary' type in the core protocol class and all of the binary protocols.

This patch doesn't provide support for 'binary' types in the JSON protocol. I haven't done much research, but I couldn't find anything quickly on how 'binary' types are supported with the JSON protocol. Is this documented anywhere? Any info, links or help is appreciated.

> The Ruby library didn't provide explicit support for 'binary' types, which sort of worked on Ruby 1.8.7 and with Thrift 0.8, but it doesn't work with Ruby 1.9.3 and the encoding changes that were included with Thrift 0.9.
> This issue is intended to provide first class support for the 'binary' type.
