Recently I've been trying to autogenerate some data structures that will work for both C++ and Java. I've made many that work with Java, but every time I try to generate one for C++ the generator breaks down. For instance, I was trying to create a Text class for C++, so I created a text.jr:
module io { class Text { ustring text; } } that in Java works fine, but in C++, this is generated (implementation is fine for the methods defined): #ifndef __TEXT_DDL__ #define __TEXT_DDL__ #include "recordio.hh" namespace io { class Text : public ::hadoop::Record { private: ::std::string text; public: virtual void serialize(::hadoop::OArchive& a_, const char* tag) const; virtual void deserialize(::hadoop::IArchive& a_, const char* tag); virtual const ::std::string& type() const; virtual const ::std::string& signature() const; virtual bool operator<(const Text& peer_) const; virtual bool operator==(const Text& peer_) const; virtual ~Text() {}; virtual const ::std::string& getText() const { return text; } virtual ::std::string& getText() { return text; } }; // end record Text } // end namespace io #endif //TEXT_DDL__ What is obviously missing is -a constructor, -a setter (there are getters for const and non-const...) This is with hadoop-0.15.1 and I've also tried following the examples given in the API to no luck. Thanks for any feedback!
