Pete Wyckoff commented on HADOOP-3754:
--------------------------------------

+1 on Owen's comment about including the generated code.  The compiled thrift 
will only work on compatible platforms, so people on Windows or other "weird" 
:) platforms will not be able to use this without compiling thrift themselves 
which is too much of a hassle i would think.

> Thrift is a cross-language RPC framework. It supports automatic code 
> generation for a variety of languages (Java, C++, python, PHP, etc) It would 
> be nice if HDFS APIs are exposed though Thirft. It will allow applications 
> written in any programming language to access HDFS.
