java.lang.NullPointerException: value is null #338

Closed johje349 closed 6 years ago

johje349 commented 7 years ago

When returning a List containing some null's we get the following error: java.lang.NullPointerException: value is null

Is this a limitation in swift or thrift? Any plans on supporting it?

Thrift doesn't support sending nulls over the wire. You need to either throw an exception (which needs to be annotated on your services) or wrap the result in something.
