Visual Studio 2008 .thrift file complete integration
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-740
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-740
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Compiler (C#)
         Environment: Windows, Visual Studio 2008 (and possibly 2005, 2010)
            Reporter: James E. King, III


I have developed a single file code generator for Thrift in Visual Studio 2008 
which allows .thrift files to be treated as first-class citizens in the IDE.  
When you add a .thrift file to the IDE, it is compiled and then all the 
compiled code output is condensed into a single .cs file which shows up as a 
subordinate file to the .thrift file in the IDE.  As you edit or save the file 
it regenerates the .cs code for full build dependency support.  This is built 
directly into the existing C# project provided with the distribution, and the 
test project no longer needs a pre-build step in order to work properly.  I 
also added an extensive readme on installation and provided a tutorial 
walkthrough on how to use it.

I am waiting for Dell legal to approve release of the code as open source.  
Once that happens I will make a patch available.  Until then consider this is a 
placeholder.
