Martin Vogt updated THRIFT-1712:
--------------------------------
Attachment: base_struct_rest_131228v1.patch
base_struct_gen_131228v1.patch
This splits the patch in two parts:
- _gen contains the modifications to the cpp generator
- _rest contains the testcase and a sample TBaseStruct.h header
> Add TBase class for c++
> -----------------------

> Key: THRIFT-1712
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1712
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: C++ - Compiler
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Reporter: Martin Vogt
> Assignee: Ben Craig
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: base, c++, class
> Attachments: base_struct_gen_131228v1.patch,
> base_struct_rest_131228v1.patch
>
>
> The generated c++ classes for struct's do not have a common base class.
> The patch adds a "base_struct" option to the compiler:
> - thrift --gen cpp:base_struct
> this will use a TBaseStruct in the thrift installation.
> Another option allows to replace the baseclass with an arbitrary one:
> -thrift --gen cpp:base_struct=MyBase,base_struct_inc=\\</path/MyBase.h\\>\n"
> With this it's possible to extend the TBaseStruct class in the thrift
> installation.
> I like to use this TBase class in QT, as a signal, for example:
> {quote}
> signals:
> void update(const TBase& tBase);
> {quote}
> And in the receiver slot I then can check which kind of message was send:
> {quote}
> // compare static pointers
> if (tBase.ascii_fingerprint == User::ascii_fingerprint) \{
> User* user=(User*)&tBase;
> processUserMessage(user);
> \}
> {quote}
