Jens Geyer commented on THRIFT-4156:
------------------------------------
Not bad. The single most tricky thing we need to cover as well that comes to my
mind are doc-comments. Have a look at THRIFT-3709, there are some good test
cases.
> Using boost spirit instead of lex and yacc
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-4156
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4156
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Compiler (General)
> Reporter: Mike Gresens
> Attachments: ast.hpp, parser.cpp
>
>
> As a developer I want to use boost spirit to get rid of lex and yacc.
> This kicks dependency to lex, flex, yacc, bison or what ever.
> This makes building easier, because only c++ code must be compiled.
> All grammar is inside the code - all c++. No need to learn ll and yy.
