Description
Currently, if you set a top-level module for thrift/ruby that's the same name as an inner class, thrift does not reference the top level appropriately. Example bad code:
.thrift:
namespace rb Cassandra
.rb:
module Cassandra
module Cassandra
class Client
...
COLUMN_PARENT => {:type => ::Thrift::Types::STRUCT, :name => 'column_parent', :class => Cassandra::ColumnParent},
Ruby checks the inner module first, and does not find the class, raising an error.
The fix is to have every place that references the top-level module prepend it with '::':
COLUMN_PARENT => {:type => ::Thrift::Types::STRUCT, :name => 'column_parent', :class => ::Cassandra::ColumnParent},
