----------------------------------------
Summary: Add support for Unix domain sockets on Windows 10 or later
Key: THRIFT-5187
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5187
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: C++ - Library
Affects Versions: 0.13.0
Reporter: Mario Emmenlauer
Assignee: Mario Emmenlauer
Since a while now, [Windows 10 has support for AF_UNIX and Unix domain
sockets|https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/af_unix-comes-to-windows/].
The support is not limited to C++ but has subsequently made it into other
languages like [dotnet|https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/pull/10560].
Support includes domain socket files and abstract domain sockets, as long as
the socket type is `SOCK_STREAM`, and a recent version of Windows 10 is used
(Windows 10 build 17063 or newer (April 2018 Update)).
This issue should track support for AF_UNIX on Windows platform.
Compared to Windows Pipes, Unix domain sockets allow for a unified model of
socket servers and clients on all major platforms.
