ClassCastException: Cannot convert String to ByteBuffer about thrift-clj HOT 4 CLOSED

This is a weird one. The field is marked as STRING (and it says in the docs that it "[...] is currently a specialized form of the string type [...]"), reading it produces a byte[] array but setting it needs a ByteBuffer. This is inconsistent to say the least...

I'll look into it.

Anything ever come of this? I just ran into the same issue. Essentially, I cannot set anything as a binary field.

namespace java com.example
struct SomeMessage {
  1: binary body
}
service SomeService {
  1: sendMsg(1:SomeMessage m)
}

(thrift/import
  (:types [com.example SomeMessage])
  (:clients [com.example SomeService]))

(def msg
  (SomeMessage. (ByteBuffer/wrap (.getBytes "the body" "UTF-8"))))

Produces this:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.nio.ByteBuffer
    at com.example.SomeMessage.setFieldValue(SomeMessage.java:135)
    at ns_225746209.SomeMessage.to_thrift_STAR_(producer.clj:32)

@charlie-harvey There is 3fbcf1e (from #10), introducing handling of binary fields, with the caveat that there is no longer an automatic conversion to String for string fields. I just noticed that this has never been released - sorry for that.

Could you try out the latest SNAPSHOT? I'll then package a full release once I hear back from you.

[thrift-clj "0.3.0-SNAPSHOT"]

from thrift-clj.

Works!!

(with-open [c (thrift/connect! Clt "localhost:7007")]
  (Clt/sendAmqpMessage c
    (AmqpMessage. (ByteBuffer/wrap (.getBytes "hello foo")))))

struct AmqpMessage {
  1: binary body,
}

service AmqpForwardingService {
  bool sendAmqpMessage(1:AmqpMessage m)
}

Thanks so much for pushing that out. Huge help.
