> Key: THRIFT-4574
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4574
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Anatol Pomozov
> Priority: Minor
>
> Thrift has a support for C language called c_glib. This generator creates a
> stub for C language that uses quite glib library. glib library is quite heavy
> dependency and for some cases (like low level software) is not acceptable.
> One need a generator that does not have any dependencies to third-party libs
> and ideally neither to libc.
> nanopb project tries to achieve it for Protobufs. It would be great to see
> something similar for Thrift. Here is more information about nanopb
> [http://jpa.kapsi.fi/nanopb/docs/concepts.html]
> There is an attempt to implement such generator
> [https://github.com/markrileybot/thrift-nano] but it might require additional
> efforts to make the implementation up-to-date and complete.
