James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-1834:
--------------------------------------------
The Thrift C++ runtime is provided as a shared objects on Linux distributions
(such as Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Penguin). I don't see why it shouldn't be a DLL
on Windows. Boost does a good job versioning DLL and allowing multiple
versions to coexist. This project could do the same if desired.
> Unable to build C++ Thrift dynamic library on Windows

> Key: THRIFT-1834
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1834
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++ - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.9
> Environment: Windows x86_64 MSVC 2010
> Reporter: Chris Stylianou
> Labels: dll, msvc, thrift, windows
>
> I am unable to build a valid .dll version of the Thrift C++ library using
> MSVC2010 as nothing has been declared with
> "__declspec(dllexport)/__declspec(dllimport)", meaning that MSVC2010 (and
> presumably all other versions) are unable to generate the import .lib that
> should accompany the .dll library.
