Perl server
Hi!
Is a perl server supported by thrift yet? I can't find any examples
in the tutorial or the test directories.
Thanks,
Anshul

Hmmn! I, think, for the moment, I will just restructure my project to
use a ruby server instead of perl. I tried out naoya's perl server
but couldn't get that to work. Thanks for the replies and
clarifications. I think the real place where a perl server could come
in is that it would allow people to exploit cpan from within other
languages.

Yeah, to be clear, no one's opposed to having a Perl server in any way.
The need just hasn't come up yet. Jake Luciani wrote the majority of the
Perl stuff, but I think he only uses it for his client-side. He might
have some ideas about server implementation.

Another factor is that Facebook (the original home of thrift) is very
much a python/C/Java shop and very much *not* a perl shop.
If first class support for Perl were to come from the community, I am
sure it would be welcome now that the project is at apache.

Ummm... can you point me to some resource that helps me understand
these limitations. I read through
http://perldoc.perl.org/threads.html#BUGS-AND-LIMITATIONS but I still
don't get what would upset the process of writing a perl server for
thrift. I am new to perl threads and thrift. I also came across
http://www.slideshare.net/naoya1977/about-thrift
and through it
http://github.com/naoya/perl-thrift-server/tree/master
I don't know any Japanese but this looks like a perl server
implementation for thrift. Anyway, I will write my server in some
other thrift language for the moment. All the same, I am curious as
to why not having a perl server for thrift makes sense.
Thanks,
Anshul

Last I saw, Perl is client only. This makes sense given Perl's thread
limitations.
