Dragan Okiljevic commented on THRIFT-1031:
------------------------------------------
Working on my project I needed to create Thrift clients and servers both in C++
and Java, and to have C++ interoperability on Windows and *NIX platforms.
I found a great deal of help in this patch by Mr. Dickson's and I extended it
with server functionality.
The result is published as THRIFT-1123.
I express my gratitude to Mr. Dickson and I am looking forward for any comments.
> Patch to compile Thrift for vc++ 9.0 and 10.0
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-1031
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1031
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++ - Library
> Environment: Windows XP 32bit, vc++ 9.0, 10.0
> Reporter: James Dickson
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 0.7
>
> Attachments: thrift_msvc.patch

> At our company we need clients running on Windows being able to connect to
> our linux servers running hypertable. The attached patch enables the parts
> needed by Hypertable to be compiled on Windows using either the VC++ 9.0 or
> 10.0 compilers.
> Having read previous posts about ports using boost::asio we found these to be
> too intrusive for our needs. This version uses pthreads_win32 and winsock2
> and is as designed to be as un-intrusive as is possible to the original unix
> code base. It is mostly #defines between unix sockets and winsock2 sockets.
> We also tried to follow the folder structuring of the C# runtime that has
> visual studio solutions to be consistent.
> More details are in the README as not all the functionality of the original
> unix code base is available to windows users. We will add the missing
> functionality, we just wanted to share what we had as for a Windows based
> client for us it is sufficient.
> The patch is based on the latest revision in SVN, we would love feedback and
> any code reviews. If there is any possibility of this being added to the main
> trunk then that would be much appreciated, however we don't expect that.
