----------------------------------------
+1
This is important to interoperate with Java servers. Java local sockets
(server-side) support only Abstract namespaces.
> Unix domain sockets in C++ do not support the abstract namespace

> Key: THRIFT-1481
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1481
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++ - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Reporter: Asad Saeed
> Priority: Minor
>
> Linux provides the ability to create a Unix Domain socket in an abstract
> namespace independent of the filesystem. A abstract namespace is specified by
> having the sockaddr_un.sun_path start with a NULL character.
> TServerSocket and TSocket both utilize snprintf when writing to the
> sockaddr_un structure, which stops at the first NULL character. Abstract
> namespace support can be added by using memcopy instead.
