Roger Meier commented on THRIFT-2717:
-------------------------------------

Konrad, I like this approach!

I've proposed a lib/c++ library here THRIFT-2422. However c++11 and c++14 might 
be a better naming option or cpp11 as you did.


> 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 :)
