Jake Farrell commented on THRIFT-6:
-----------------------------------
-1 to another script. I spend more time when making a release on fixing all the
missed files and flags within the source/makefiles/scripts/jenkins/automated
tests/etc than I do changing the version flag for the non automated client
libs. I am all for simplifying things as much as possible, but it should be to
our advantage and not add complexity
> Thrift libraries and compiler lack version number

> Right now it's impossible to tell which version of Thrift you have installed.
> If you're depending on features that have recently been added (and that
> subtly don't exist), you can spend a lot of time chasing your tail trying to
> figure out what the problem is.
> This may be something that has to be implemented piecemeal on each client
> library (ruby gem, java classes, etc). Thoughts?
> While we're at it, let's add a --version switch or something to the compiler
> so you know what version of stuff you're actually generating.
