David Reiss c005b1b65e Thrift: Distinguish between string and binary types in C++ and Java. Summary: The upcoming TJSONProtocol handles string and binary types quite differently. This change makes that distinction in all parts of the C++ binding. Java already distinguished between string and binary, but this change also updates the Java skip method to skip over strings as binary so we don't get encoding errors when skipping binary data. Reviewed By: mcslee Test Plan: make check Revert Plan: ok Other Notes: I just pulled this out of Chad Walters' JSON patch. The only other change was adding readBinary (or was it writeBinary) to TDenseProtocol. Maybe inheriting from TBinaryProtocol wasn't a good idea. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/thrift/trunk@665481 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68		2008-02-15 01:38:18 +00:00

Thrift C++ Software Library

Thrift is distributed under the Thrift open source software license.
Please see the included LICENSE file.

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.
