> Apache Thrift needs better Centos support.
> Apache Thrift build and test has been missing solid Centos support. Getting
> the full Thrift platform to build on Centos is a rough road, largely because
> commits take place without testing on Centos.
> Kerry Kim, director of Linux markets for SuSE, in a January 2014 LinuxInsider
> story ranked enterprise Linux platforms: Red Hat (60 percent market share),
> SuSE (30 percent market share), Oracle (5 to 8 percent market share) and
> Ubuntu (less than 4 percent) http://www.linuxinsider.com/story/79717.html
> Testing with Centos provides the opportunity to catch additional defects in
> code, build and cross platform operation which aren't reported on Ubuntu
> alone. A particular concern that Centos will help trap is the addition of C+
> + 11 code to the Thrift compiler and or C+ + 98 lib. A cpp11 lib is a
> necessary addition but we should keep the compiler and existing libs free of
> C+ + 11 so that they will build on LTS platforms.
> This Vagrantfile is a work in progress. It currently supports building the
> compiler and almost all of the language libraries.
> Adding Centos and a Windows vm to the CI process prior to v1.0 would be a
> significant cross platform uptick. With Ubuntu, Centos and Windows, Thrift
> would have the cross platform test base that it deserves.
> As a side note: We should either make sure commits pass CI or just turn off
> the CI everywhere so that we do not waste power, CPU cycles and email
> bandwidth. The CI BUILD FAILED emails are far too frequent.
