Mikael Lindgren deleted comment on THRIFT-2717: ----------------------------------------- was (Author: mili): Hi! I noticed there hasn't been much discussion here recently. Any status updates? After using thrift for a year now I very much would like to see a version that uses C++11 and without dependencies to boost. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. > C++V2 generator/library > ----------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-2717 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2717 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: C++ - Compiler > Reporter: Konrad Grochowski > Priority: Major > > instead of adding another set of options to 'old' cpp generator I've started > creating new one in: > https://github.com/hcorg/thrift/tree/cpp_v2 > using old as an reference > main goals (for generator): > * code compatible with old librart (at least for first tests, new lib and > compiler switches can be added later) > * no more ugly {{__isset}} structure -> boost::optional for optional values > * as a result - no more {{__}} in names, which violates C++ standard > * all generation code will have own unit tests (TDD used wherever possible) > * generated types headers independent from Thrift header, to allow other > layers of application using generated types without dependency leaks > * each type will generate own header/cpp file - easier for user to include > only used parts. > * unordered map/sets > * returning using move semantics, no more ugly 'return via output parameter' > (still possible as option thou - sometimes it's needed for performance) > * async client using boost::future > * enum classes > * initializer lists for constants (maybe) > main goals (for library): > * minimizing boost deps > * using C++11 features to simplify lib > * be base for new generator > I'm aiming in C++11 subset available in gcc 4.8 and MSVC 2013 > currently I have only complete enum generation, but work is in progress > all comments etc are very welcome :) -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
