Installed C++ header files depend on "config.h" which may have conflicting
macros with the (autoconf based) C++ project using Thrift.

Key: THRIFT-705
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-705
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Library (C++)
Environment: Any Thrift compatible C++ compiler environment.
Reporter: Teemu Koponen
The public, installed Thrift C++ header files depend on an autoconf generated
system specific 'config.h' header file. Unfortunately, having this header file
as a part of the library headers is generally troublesome. For example, see:
http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook_96.html
Attached is a patch that relies on an alternative, simpler approach based on
AX_PREFIX_CONFIG_H, which adds a package prefix to both config.h file name and
to the macros defined within:
http://www.nongnu.org/autoconf-archive/ax_prefix_config_h.html
The resulting thrift-config.h can be installed and included safely from C++
applications having their own config.h.
