Hi Kevin, Thanks for the info. If I get this working with Thrift I will certainly be happy to submit patches for it.
It strikes me it should be possible to make this work by adding some extra classes to the base library at the protocol layer. It does of course it does of course mean the wire format would be different. I also only have enough knowledege of Java and C# to write patches for those languages. I suppose if anyone else is interested it should be fairly easy to port it to a language of their choice. I will keep looking in to this and post back if I make any progress. Thanks again, Charlie M On Fri, May 8, 2009 at 12:54 AM, Kevin Clark <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Charlie, > See: > > Almost identical question: > http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-thrift-user/200905.mbox/browser > > The "game network protocol" thread in march and april: > http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-thrift-user/200904.mbox/browser > http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-thrift-user/200903.mbox/browser > > I've been hearing about this use case a lot lately.
