> Optional replacement of pthread by boost::thread
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-1361
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1361
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++ - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Environment: Linux and Windows
> Reporter: alexandre parenteau
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: patch
> Fix For: 0.8
>
> Attachments: THRIFT-1361-configure.ac.patch, THRIFT-1361-rev2.patch,
> THRIFT-1361.patch
>
> Original Estimate: 48h
> Remaining Estimate: 48h

> What it is:
> * an experimental alternative to using pthread in Thrift, by using
> boost::thread and boost::interprocess instead (--enable-boostthreads)
> * a way for thrift clients already depending on boost::thread to blend better
> with thrift
> * a solution to the Windows problem of having to link with ASF incompatible
> license of pthread_win32 (GPL), add more servers and transports to WIN32
> (pooled, file, pipe...), and allow for a 64bits WIN32. See THRIFT-1031 for
> details.
> What it is NOT:
> * a replacement for the POSIX thread version of thrift: the POSIX pthread
> version has more features, and is probably more stable/mature. This feature
> is turned off by default by configure
> * a mature code: it has been really lightly tested, and is aimed primarily at
> the WIN32 platform
> New dependencies:
> * if --enable-boostthreads is provided, libthrift.so will link with shared
> libboost_thread.so (cannot work with libboost_thread.a AFAIK). This forces in
> effect Thrift to use a version of boost compiled with "./bjam link=shared"
> Bugs/Testing:
> * ./TestServer --server-type=thread-pool: PASS
> * ./TestServer --server-type=threaded: PASS
> * TFileTransportTest::test_destructor: FAILS: could not tell whether this is
> because I'm using a slow (virtual) machine (as pointed by the test comment)
> * Tested on Ubuntu/Windows, boost 1.44, libevent 2.0.14: however did not
> change the vc10 project files, because of potential conflict with on going
> THRIFT-1031
> * It is now possible to include more servers/transports to Win32, and also
> remove all pthread_win32 dependencies
> Related JIRA:
> * THRIFT-1031: Windows port
> Side notes:
> * there are minor corrections inside PosixThreadFactory for all platforms
> ("started" vs "starting"...), so that Win32 port also works with pthread_win32
> * TFileTransport has been enhanced to use the existing Mutex and Monitor
> abstractions
> * a minor fix in TSocket.cpp prevents verbose error, WIN32 only
> * minor enhancement by using WSAPoll if available, WIN32 only
> * on msvc10 and boost 1.44, there is a problem deep inside
> boost::interprocess: boost/interprocess/detail/move.hpp needs to be patched:
> {code}
> index 31d108f..42aa227 100644

> Please let me know of any questions, testing help appreciated (./configure
> --enable-boostthreads). This is an important change for our company, to get a
> Windows port of Thrift more on par with Linux features.
