-------------------------------------------
Hi Chris,
I was also just looking for this ticket THRIFT-1753, thanks Ben.
It would be nice to get rid of the dependency, it would make it a lot easier to
maintain and build Thrift.
But we need to keep compatibility, which could be achieved by a switch in the
compiler and loads of preprocessor directives in the library. It's quite a long
list of changes, as Randy mentioned on the same ticket.
I think it would be a valid patch if you want to go through it and make both
work with the same code base. Otherwise, I would close this for now.
Thanks for the input.

> Key: THRIFT-2221
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2221
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: C++ - Compiler
> Affects Versions: 0.9.1
> Environment: C++11 compilers with std::shared_ptr support
> Reporter: Chris Stylianou
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: c++11, compiler, thrift
>
> Most modern compilers now have full support for std::shared_ptr when enable
> with c++11 flags. It would be nice to have the option to generate code that
> uses this instead of boost::shared_ptr. This would enable us to remove
> another boost dependency, on the road to a dependency-free thrift library :)
