Jens Geyer commented on THRIFT-937:
-----------------------------------

> Jens - I want to help you get this committed, 

Thank you.

> Do you plan on making more revisions before it's "ready"? 

Yes, I'm still working on it, and it's not fully completed. I will also add 
some more JIRA issues as I go.

My goal is to get it ready in terms of 
a) having the tutorial sample running 
b) being able to connect to Cassandra
c) having a test suite (or "the" test suite?) implemented and running w/o 
errors.

These are my goals for the near future. 

I already did a proof-of-concept with a small Cassandra sample some months ago 
and I've seen it working - but I had to do a lot of hand-made converting of 
generated C++ code into pascal to achieve that (and I really mean a lot) since 
there is no pascal codegeneration yet. I really don't want to do that once 
again, and that's basically how I came up with the idea to contribute to Thrift.

Unfortunately not, but I have some plans to publish an article in a german 
developer magazine about Thrift and/or Cassandra later, hoping that this may 
raise some attention on the project. For now I don't know of one (I still had a 
little hpe that there might be someone around here). But you are absolutely 
right, and I will try to get someone from the pascal land involved in the 
project to review the code.
