> C++ TJSONProtocol using locale dependent formatting

> I'm using Thrift for serializing objects (in C++) into JSON strings, which I 
> then store as files. This usually works fine, but if the locale of my system 
> is set to a locale where the decimal separator is ',' instead of '.' (for 
> instance in Denmark), then the TJSONProtocol (specifically the 
> writeJSONDouble function that does the double to string conversion through a 
> boost::lexical_cast) will also use this separator when serializing doubles. 
> This kinda plays havoc with the JSON specification, which does not allow for 
> localized formatting, and depends on always using '.' as a decimal separator. 
> I could imagine that there may be other more subtle places where the local 
> can have an effect, but this is currently the only place I've been having 
> trouble with.
> I can see that the same problem has been fixed for C# (commit
> 3da317bda100130b2f615034c46b0944888f0f14 / THRIFT-1245 C# JSON Protocol uses 
> culture-dependant decimal separator for double) but it doesn't seem as if 
> there's a similarly easy way to fix boost::lexical_cast...
> Note that I'm using Thrift 0.9.0, but as far as I can see there hasn't been 
> any relevant changes to TJSONProtocol.cpp since.
> Relevant thread on thrift-user mailing list can be found here: 
> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/thrift-user/201412.mbox/%3c7c2463f510dbb7548b4718e202ac1...@mail.gmail.com%3e
> I've also attached a quick patch that works on my setup (see the patch file 
> comments for more information).
