I'm trying to use thrift with c++11, and I noticed some issues with that.
For some of these I have patches against the 0.9.1 release. We use gcc
4.8.1 in a partially sandboxed system (compiler and most of the libs are
installed in a sandbox). I ran into a couple of problems:
* The code does not build out of the source tree:
Making all in py
make[3]: Entering directory
`/home/immanuel/workspace/code/volumedriver-buildtools/src/debug/thrift/build/lib/py'
/usr/bin/python setup.py build
/usr/bin/python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or
directory
* Tutorial does not compile because the shared_ptr there is not prefixed
with the boost:: namespace. I have a small patch for this.
*Test does not compile because of the same confusion between boost and std
(a lot of the boost stuff got moved to std)
ZlibTest.cpp:72:17: error: reference to 'lognormal_distribution' is
ambiguous
gen_(rng, lognormal_distribution<double>(mean, std_dev)) {}
* Warnings in the code because it confuses the "PRI" macros with the user
defined literals in C++11. I have a small patch for this, it's enough to
leave add a space before those macros.
* I tried the --with-sysroot=${PREFIX}, where prefix is the dir in which
our sandbox is installed and that generates a faulty .la file with the
following entry (wrong = sign in that line)
>>
# Libraries that this one depends upon.
dependency_libs=' -L=/lib -lssl -lcrypto -lrt -lpthread
=/home/immanuel/workspace/buildtools/debug/3.0/lib/../lib64/libstdc++.la'
>>
That --with-sysroot doesn't seem to do much since it still finds openssl in
under /usr/lib
* disabling openssl doesn't seem to work (--without--openssl)

The tutorial then seems to run fine.
Are you willing to accept patches for these? What would you prefer them
against? Is there a plan to move towards better support for c++11?
