James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-3013: -------------------------------------------- I understand where folks are coming from, so thank you for the responses regarding boost. The reason why I hesitate going with a checked-in solution file is that when the C++ library changes, people will need to update the solution/project as well. If the solution is generated every time, it is always correct and we eliminate a bunch of tickets (there are at least 3). Especially since we don't use the static project in the CI build, nothing would verify it still works. I think it also makes sense for the project to provide a thrift.exe official binary, statically linked with static runtime so there are no dependencies. We can cover the project stuff in the other ticket for cmake / windows build projects (THRIFT-3973). As for this, given the solution is there (I agree with Randy, would like to see the use of program-options-like options i.e. "-r" or "--recurse"), let's get a pull request into github so CI can validate it, and make sure we have a test that executes the new code. > make thrift compiler accept a list of input files > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-3013 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3013 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Compiler (General) > Affects Versions: 0.9.2 > Reporter: Xiaoshuang LU > Assignee: Roger Meier > Attachments: THRIFT-3013.v4.patch > > > At present, customers could only specify one input file to thrift compiler. > There are maybe two approaches to support multiple input files. > Approach 1: Improve the option parser in compiler/cpp/src/main.cc. Maybe we > can borrow code from GUN's getopt_long. > Approach 2: Offer users a maven plugin which can help them to iterate through > a list of input files. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
