Re: No C++ types output from Thrift compiler on Windows

[Rush Manbert]

Sorry, but I can't help either. We only use the compiler on OS X. On Windows, all we care about are the C++ runtime libraries.

(And sorry for the delay, I've been on vacation.)

Mark, your message did go through. I believe most people are using Thrift on

*nix based platforms. A quick search of my GMail archives for the

THRIFT-311 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-311) for MSVC

more helpful.

Did this not go through or do people simply not build on (or care about thrift compiler on) Windows? Has anyone else encountered similar problems?

Hey guys,
I'm new to Thrift but am looking forward to playing with it.

Unfortunately

I'm struggling to get a working Thrift compiler on Windows. I've built thrift.exe in Cygwin with the no-cygwin-dependency path documented on http://wiki.apache.org/thrift/ThriftInstallationWin32, but it seems to only half-work. For example, when I try to generate C++ code using the

tutorial files, the compiler says this:

[ERROR:c:\development\project\foo\thrift\tutorial.thrift:123] (last
token was 'shared.SharedService')
Service "shared.SharedService" has not been defined.


shared.thrift directly, I only see SharedService.h/cpp and
SharedService_server.skeleton.cpp, while on Linux I also see

like I'm missing all of the thrift-file-related (as opposed to
service-related) C++ files.

I tried generating Java and Python as well.  Java seemed to work

The same command line works fine on Linux. Secondly, if I try compiling shared_types.h/cpp. I tried some other sample .thrift files and it seems

correctly,

outputting the same thing on both Linux and Windows.  Python didn't

output

*anything* on Windows, while it generated appropriate files and

directories

on Linux.

What's going on? Did I build thrift.exe incorrectly? Does something

about

it not like Windows? Have others encountered similar problems? (Any

chance

of a binary distribution of thrift.exe so I can expect the compiled

binary

to do what it's supposed to?)
