I wrote some scripts to automate the process of compiling Thrift IDLs and put the generated classes in the correct locations of my Visual Studio C# project. I write the IDLs in Visual Studio and they are under its source control system.
The problem is that files generated by Visual Studio are in UTF-8 format. Trying to compile such files doesn't work since Thrift compiler doesn't support this format (I managed to convert the input file to ASCII (using a temporary file) before compiling it, but this approach will probably be very complicated if I use the "include" statement in the IDL). Is there any work around for this problem? The compiler version is 0.9. Best regards, Youssef Hatem
