James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-4156: -------------------------------------------- Current requirement is that you don't need it to build. Like I said, I like the idea... but it would need buy-in from others on the team. > Using boost spirit instead of lex and yacc > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: THRIFT-4156 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4156 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Compiler (General) > Reporter: Mike Gresens > > As a developer I want to use boost spirit to get rid of lex and yacc. > This kicks dependency to lex, flex, yacc, bison or what ever. > This makes building easier, because only c++ code must be compiled. > All grammar is inside the code - all c++. No need to learn ll and yy. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
