Check out step 4 of this page: https://wiki.fourkitchens.com/display/PF/Using+Cassandra+with+PHP
./compiler/cpp/thrift -gen php ../PATH-TO-CASSANDRA/interface/cassandra.thrift That is how to compile the thrift client from the cassandra bindings. Just replace the "php" with the language of your choosing. According to http://wiki.apache.org/thrift/, "Thrift has generators for C++, C#, Erlang, Haskell, Java, Objective C/Cocoa, OCaml, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Squeak" HTH Dave Viner On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 6:05 PM, GH <gavan.h...@gmail.com> wrote: > > To be honest I do not know how to regenerate the binidings, I will look > into that. > ollowing your email, I went on and took the unit test code and created a > client.
