Oh, then I misinterpreted the mail. > In the meantime, am I to understand that we are at an impasse? > Is a private Thrift build that includes Julia out of the question? No, I'd just say that there was nobody there to answer. That may happen. The question is otherwise perfectly legit, don't worry about that. > I run ./configure and see among other things: > Julia is not even listed much less being built. > Is there anything else I need to do? These output relates only to the libraries. As the code you linked does not contain any library, there is either something missing or there is no library (is thàt even possible?) The compiler code needs to be added to the makefile.am somewhere in the /compiler folder. It may be nescessary to run bootstrap.sh && configure && make again. The author also mentions a special fork he recommends, maybe that does the trick: https://github.com/apache/thrift/compare/master...tanmaykm:julia1.0-thrift-0.11.0 Have fun, JensG -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- From: Roberts, Geoffry [USA] Sent: Friday, August 30, 2019 2:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [External] Fw: Adding a new language to Thrift Jens, I have inquired of the owner of the Thrift.jl project.

The project linked is under a MIT style license, and you are not the original author. The ASF usually requires the contributor of the source (which would be you) contributed to an ASF project to have adequate rights to do so. I'd doubt that you can simply take someone elses code and contribute it under APL 2. Even if we talk about OSS, that is questionable. Would it be an option to ask the original owner of the code whether he/she wants to contribute the code him/herself and put the contribution under APL 2? Have fun, JensG
