+1 (non-bindning)
Verified on macOS 27 (arm64) and Windows Server 2025 (GitHub Actions):
- sha256 and GPG signature of the tarball and the exe OK, key
8CD87F18...C4B75865 in KEYS
- tarball matches release/0.25.0 (27e8a425f)
- configure + make; lib/go, test/go, tutorial/go, lib/cpp and lib/py checks
pass on macOS, and the go/py cross-tests pass
- lib/go also builds for linux/386 and linux/arm
- Windows: compiler builds from the tarball (x64 and Win32), ctest passes;
go test ./lib/go/thrift/... and the netstd tests pass, the latter with code
generated by thrift-0.25.0.exe
- thrift-0.25.0.exe generates the same code as a Win32 compiler built from
the tarball, except uuid constants in js:node (THRIFT-6336, fixed for
0.26.0)
Downstream:
- my hms-client-go on the RC runtime, both with its 0.24.0-generated code
and with code regenerated by the RC compiler: tests pass, and its
integration matrix against Hive 2.3.9, 3.1.3, 4.0.1 and 4.2.1 (binary,
HTTP, TLS, Kerberos) is green
- Go code generated by the RC compiler for the Hive metastore, TCLIService,
Parquet, Impala, Doris, StarRocks and Evernote IDL builds against lib/go
Things I had to work around on macOS, none of which would hold the release:
- THRIFT-6377: generated C++ for a list<bool> field no longer compiles as
C++11 against libc++ ("no member named 'emplace_back' in
'std::vector<bool>'"; C++14 and later are fine). Came in with ca676787c.
- THRIFT-6378: lib/cpp/test and test/cpp do not pass the OpenSSL and
libevent paths, so the tests do not build when those live outside the
default search path (Homebrew).
- THRIFT-6379: configure.ac and test/cpp hard-code libboost_system, which
Boost 1.89+ no longer ships.
- THRIFT-6385: one TNonblockingServerTest case always fails on macOS, where
RLIMIT_AS cannot be set. Test only.
Found along the way, not new in 0.25.0: THRIFT-6384, the Go -remote stub
does not compile for container arguments whose field id differs from their
position (IoTDB's IDL hits it).
For the next release: the tarball contains lib/d/src/base.o, config.h and
configured Makefiles from the build tree (THRIFT-6380), and md5/sha1 files
can be dropped in favour of sha512 (THRIFT-6381).
Fixes are up as PRs #3957 to #3961.
