Generate Java classes for thrift about scrooge

I'm having the same issue.

From what I can tell, adding:

<thriftOpt>--language java</thriftOpt>

will pass the equivalent of --language\ java and adding:

<thriftOpt>--language</thriftOpt>
<thriftOpt>java</thriftOpt>

doesn't work because the options are converted to a set and the ordering is not maintained. The error message tells me: language option /path/to/my.thrift not supported, so it appears to be adding the --language option last.

Yes the latter solution worked for me too. So spilting into two lines and keeping at as the last options generates Java.

I had the same problem. This fixed it for me:

<configuration>
  <thriftOpts>
    <thriftOpt>-l</thriftOpt>
    <thriftOpt>java</thriftOpt>
  </thriftOpts>
</configuration>

(Using -l instead of --language)

But it would be nice to be able to have a language tag, like this:

<configuration>
  <language>java</language>
</configuration>

@chunyan Any chance you would accept a pull request adding a tag?
