newbie query

Hello,  

I am a new to thrift.. 
from the white paper I read that thrift provides "reliable communication across programming languages"    does this mean that a  c++ thrift client can communicate with java thrift server ?

regards,
manju

yup in short.

Longer answer is that you define your objects and services in a language
agnostic way using a .thrift file.  The thrift libraries take care of
serialization and desrialization so that you can communicate in any language
you choose.  We have 4 languages on our project now (c++, java, python, and
php) and they all communicate via thrift rpc.
