Konrad Grochowski commented on THRIFT-2717:
-------------------------------------------
eh, seems I'm better at finding problems than fixing them ;)
v2 will not support all current cpp switches. How should thrift behave in below
call?
{code}
thrift --gen cpp:v2,pure_enums
{code}
probably just fail with error, but we have to remember to support it
at some point I really liked idea of adding new option like {{std}}, which
would have semantics similar to the gcc's one, making it straight forward for
many C\+\+ users.
{code}
thrift --gen cpp:std=c++11
thrift --gen cpp:std=c++98 #default for time being
{code}
I can imagine that c\+\+17 would be just a c\+\+11 with optional=std option
enabled by default, when c\+\+11 would have it optional=boost.

> 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:
> * code compatible with old librart (at least for first tests, new lib and
> compiler switches can be added later)
> * 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 :)
