@jeking3 I'm a bit torn with what is required... So boost is only required when building the thrift library, not when linking it (runtime)? I'm building my [conan-package](https://github.com/helmesjo/conan-thrift). If I use boost only for building, then my simple test_package.cpp fails with the following (among others): ``` TWinsockSingleton.h(34,10): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'boost/noncopyable.hpp': No such file or directory [...] ``` So do I understand your above comment correct that there is no need to link boost, but some headers are still required when building my code that includes the generated thrift-stubs? You mention [THRIFT-4441](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4441) but that has already been closed and is in 0.13 (allegedly), but obviously I still see the above issue (and boost is still required to both build and consume thrift 0.13). **So basically:** What is the state regarding boost? Is there anything in the works to get rid of boost completely? Any light shed on this would be greatly appreciated! ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
