I want to set up the following type of service structure:
Thrift
---------------------------
service ServiceBase {
// A generic method to ping if a service is up?
bool ping(),
// How long has this service been up?
i64 uptime()
}
service CalculatorService extends ServiceBase {
// Adds two ints together.
int add(int a, int b)
}
I want to implement the ServiceBase methods only once, so that all
services can be ping()able, and all services can be queried about
their uptime(). This way, any service under my infrastructure only has
to implement its special methods (CalculatorService::add(), for
example).
However, there doesn't seem to be a clean way for me to provide a base
implementation with my C++ services, and have the auto-generated
implementations also inherit from my base implementation.
How have other people solved this problem? I was trying to poke into
fb303, but I wasn't able to gain any more insight in accomplishing
this. Maybe I missed something, though? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
