Thiruvalluvan M. G. commented on AVRO-1133:
-------------------------------------------
VS 2008 is ten years old. Do we need to address this issue? Is there any
objection if we close this issue as 'WONTFIX'?
> Build failing with Visual Studio C++ 2008 due to missing stdint.h
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1133
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1133
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: c++
> Affects Versions: 1.7.1
> Environment: Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3, Microsoft Visual
> Studio 2008 SP1
> Reporter: Laurent Moss
> Priority: Major
>
> Several Avro C++ API files refer to stdint.h. However, this file is not
> available on Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 (and previous versions). This
> results in several build errors such as:
> C:\workspace\avro-cpp\api\Validator.hh(24) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open
> include file: 'stdint.h': No such file or directory
> This is similar to an issue previously faced by the Avro C API:
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-551
> This was issue was fixed in the Avro C API by integrating open-source ISO C9x
> compliant stdint.h and inttypes.h files for Microsoft Visual Studio:
> https://code.google.com/p/msinttypes/
> An alternative for the Avro C++ API would be to replace references to
> stdint.h by references to Boost's cstdint.hpp
> http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_50_0/boost/cstdint.hpp
