--------------------------------

             Summary: sendSynchronousRequest is now technically deprecated
                 Key: THRIFT-4179
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4179
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Dependency upgrade
          Components: Cocoa - Compiler, Cocoa - Library
            Reporter: owen hay


iOS 9 marks the deprecation of the sendSynchronousRequest API.  There is a new 
setup for sending asynch http requests via the NSSession API.  This will break 
thrift generated Cocoa because you rely on bubbling up NSExceptions after a 
blocking request.  Now the approved pattern has changed to a callback oriented 
architecture.  There would likely be changes required to both compiler and 
library in order to accomodate this.  You could also just stitch in a 
synchronous blocking call using a semaphore block like detailed here:

But that's not really in the spirit of why apple is deprecating synch requests.
