["Roger Meier (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-966?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13003572#comment-13003572 ] 

Roger Meier commented on THRIFT-966:
------------------------------------

A new idea:
* look up the bind port only if (port_ == 0) and store it within port_
* int getPort() returns the port_ value

> Bind to zero port

> apache::thrift::transport::TServerSocket class has a possibility to set 0 as port number. In this case bind will assign a free port number. Unfortunately there is no possibility to retrieve the assigned port number from the TServerSocket class. Thus clients will not be able to connect the server.
> The suggested patch introduces apache::thrift::transport::TServerSocket::getBindPort() method that return the assigned port number or -1 in the case of any failure or when the port has not been assigned yet.
