## Running the user example

Generate the bindings:

    ../../../compiler/cpp/thrift --gen js:node user.thrift
    ../../../compiler/cpp/thrift --gen js:node --gen py hello.thrift

To run the user example, first start up the server in one terminal:

    NODE_PATH=../lib:../lib/thrift node server.js

Now run the client:

    NODE_PATH=../lib:../lib/thrift node client.js

For an example using JavaScript in the browser to connect to
a node.js server look at hello.html, hello.js and hello.thrift

HTTP examples are provided also: httpClient.js and httpServer.js
You can test HTTP cross platform with the httpServer.py Python server
