James E. King III commented on THRIFT-4720:
-------------------------------------------

One of the things I would like to do in the C++11 conversion is remove 
BoostThread and PosixThread, and move StdThread to just be TThread.  This way 
we'll have on thread class.  Same for mutex.

In THRIFT-4441 most of the work was already done to allow for pure C++11 
without boost, it just wasn't completed.  However instead of allowing it to be 
an option (boost or not) we can just drop boost at the same time using that as 
a start.

If you can get your work here to a point where it passes CI builds and 
addresses the autoconf builds as well then we can start with this, not removing 
boost, and then come back around and remove boost.

> migrate code to c++11

>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: C++ - Compiler, C++ - Library
>    Affects Versions: 1.0
>            Reporter: yuanyuan chen
>            Priority: Major
>
> As discussed in THRIFT-4678,now that we may want to drop C++03 support.
> I will take the following steps:
> 1.force C++11 compilers in CMake.But I am not familiar with GNU 
> autotools,would anybody help me changing that piece of script?
> 2.remove deprecated features in C++11 from run-time library and compiler 
> generated code.
> 3.replace boost components with C++11 counterparts gradually.
>  
> This issue is created for some advises for the above steps.
