| Using Thrift with Perl |
| ===================== |
| |
| Thrift requires Perl >= 5.6.0 |
| |
| Exceptions are thrown with die so be sure to wrap eval{} statments |
| around any code that contains exceptions. |
| |
| The 64bit Integers work only upto 2^42 on my machine :-? |
| Math::BigInt is probably needed. |
| |
| The only other issue I have with this implementation is the lack of |
| strict accessor methods, for example: to set a struct with variable |
| foo you must assign it via hash key: |
| |
| my $x = new StructWithFoo(); |
| $x->{foo} = "bar"; |
| |
| rather than: |
| |
| $x->foo("bar"); |
| |
| Please see tutoral and test dirs for examples... |
