any thoughts?

Having a Java base parser/compiler would be really nice!

When I wrote my "light" compiler for Java [1] I first thought about rewriting the compiler in Java from scratch. Eventually I chose to hack the existing C++ code, but from the perspective of a Java developer working on Windows that was really a pain. Getting the Thrift source to compile isn't really trivial, and using the compiler is rather impractical (I switch back and forth between Windows and a Debian box).

There is no reason to replace the existing compiler in C++, a Java compiler can coexist. Choice is good.
