David Reiss 709b69f14c THRIFT-926. cpp: Fix destructor behavior of TFileTransport
Set closing_ to true before we wake up the writer thread in the
destructor.  This way the writer thread flushes the data and exits when
it is woken up.

Previously the writer thread could end up going through 2 full timeout
cycles before exiting.  The writer thread could wake up, notice it has
nothing to do since closing_ is not set, and immediately go back to
sleep.  The destructor would then proceed to call flush(), which would
wait for the writer thread to wake up (1 full time out) and clear the
forceFlush_ flag.  After flush returns, the destructor would set
closing_.  It could take the writer thread another full timeout to wake
up again and process this flag.

There were also some points where the worker threads would detect the
closing_ state in their loops and automatically close the file, but did
not zero out the file descriptor, then the destructer attempted to close
the same file.  Fix by simply zeroing out the fd_ at these points.

Using Thrift with C++
=====================

The Thrift C++ libraries are built using the GNU tools. Follow the instructions
in the top-level README, or run bootstrap.sh in this folder to generate the
Makefiles.

In case you do not want to open another README file, do this:
  ./bootstrap.sh
  ./configure (--with-boost=/usr/local)
  make
  sudo make install

Thrift is divided into two libraries.

libthrift
  The core Thrift library contains all the core Thrift code. It requires
  boost shared pointers, pthreads, and librt.

libthriftnb
  This library contains the Thrift nonblocking server, which uses libevent.
  To link this library you will also need to link libevent.

Linking Against Thrift
======================

After you build and install Thrift the libraries are installed to
/usr/local/lib by default. Make sure this is in your LDPATH.

On Linux, the best way to do this is to ensure that /usr/local/lib is in
your /etc/ld.so.conf and then run /sbin/ldconfig.

Depending upon whether you are linking dynamically or statically and how
your build environment it set up, you may need to include additional
libraries when linking against thrift, such as librt and/or libpthread. If
you are using libthriftnb you will also need libevent.
