See > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-162 for related discussion. > The SkewedInfo struct contains a map which uses a list as a key, breaking the > Python Thrift interface. It is not possible to specify the mapping from > Thrift types to Python types, or otherwise we could map Thrift lists to > Python tuples. Instead, the proposed workaround wraps the list inside a new > struct. This alone does not accomplish anything, but allows Python clients to > define a hash function for the struct class, e.g.: > def f(object): > return hash(tuple(object.skewedValueList)) > SkewedValueList.__hash__ = f > In practice a more efficient hash might be defined that does not involve > copying the list. The advantage of wrapping the list inside a struct is that > the client does not have to define the hash on the list itself, which would > change the behaviour of lists everywhere else in the code. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
