Konrad Grochowski created THRIFT-2717:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: C++11 generator
Key: THRIFT-2717
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2717
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: C++ - Compiler
Reporter: Konrad Grochowski
instead of adding another set of options to 'old' cpp generator I've started
creating new one in:
https://github.com/hcorg/thrift/tree/cpp11_generator
using old as an reference
main goals:
* no more ugly {{__isset}} structure -> boost::optional for optional values
* as a result - no more {{__}} in names, which violates C++ standard
* all generation code will have own unit tests (TDD used wherever possible)
* generated types headers independent from Thrift header, to allow other
layers of application using generated types without dependency leaks
* each type will generate own header/cpp file - easier for user to include
only used parts.
* unordered map/sets
* returning using move semantics, no more ugly 'return via output parameter'
(still possible as option thou - sometimes it's needed for performance)
* async client using boost::future
* enum classes
* initializer lists for constants (maybe)
I'm aiming in C++11 subset available in gcc 4.8 and MSVC 2013
currently I have only complete enum generation, but work is in progress
all comments etc are very welcome :)
