Hi,
I would like to build the Python egg for Thrift 0.9.3 as easily as possible on
my Windows 7 laptop.
If I download thrift-0.9.3.tar.gz, unzip it and cd into thrift-0.9.3\lib\py and
run the setup I get:
C:\Tools\thrift\0.9.3\thrift-0.9.3\lib\py>python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 36, in <module>
del os.link
AttributeError: link
I'm using Python 2.7.11 :: Anaconda 2.5.0 (64-bit).
As I've written this I've discovered os.link doesn't exist in Python 2
(https://docs.python.org/2/library/os.html) but it does in Python 3:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.link.
So am I obliged to use Python 3 to create the Thrift egg now; or is there an
easy way to do it for Python 2 users? I never got this error when I made the
egg for thrift 0.9.1 but I notice the setup.py file for that version of Thrift
doesn't use 'os' at all.
Thanks, Lucas.
