Pure C implementation
I’m looking to serialize structures on a micro controller. I would like to specifically use thrift to do the serialization. The backend already uses thrift so I would prefer to keep with the same IDL. I see there is a C thrift library, however it uses Glib. Getting Glib to fit and compile on the micro may not be feasible. Does anyone know of a pure C implementation, I don’t need the service interface or transports, only the serialization part of thrift?

After messing around a bit bit with libmowgli (
https://github.com/atheme/libmowgli-2), I ended up with what you see here:
https://github.com/markrileybot/thrift-nano/blob/master/lib/c_nano/src/thrift/types.h
https://github.com/markrileybot/thrift-nano/blob/master/lib/c_nano/src/thrift/types.c
Basically, lists and maps are regions of memory to which data is copied.

Hi,
I didn't dive into the implementation, but I would have a question: how
do you want to create the container classes, like list<> or map<>?
Best,
Wilm

There's still a bit of work to be done. I have the basic data structures,
a few protocols and a memory transport done. My plan is to finish the
struct generator in the next week or so. Hopefully, at that point, I'll
get some help with the service stuff and general cleanup.

There's still a bit of work to be done. I have the basic data structures,
a few protocols and a memory transport done. My plan is to finish the
struct generator in the next week or so. Hopefully, at that point, I'll
get some help with the service stuff and general cleanup.

cool stuff!
thrift-nano is a great thing, a pure C implementation was already
requested by many users.
I hope we can get this merged into Apache Thrift. Patches are welcome!

Tyler,
I work with someone that did just that. Look here:

The author is not on this mailing list but will be soon.
