C++ Upgrade from Thrift 0.11.0 to 0.13.0

Hello,

We have integrated Thrift version 0.11.0 into our product and are now looking to upgrade to 0.13.0.

Here's the environment:
Windows 2010, Visual Studio 2017, 64bit, Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.16.27034 for x64

Our product uses a threading abstraction derived from boost::thread.

Our server is a TThreadedServer where the thread factory argument is a specialization apache::thrift::concurrency::ThreadFactory.

In version 0.13.0 the threading the server is final and cannot be extended.  This is also true for apache::thrift::concurrency::Thread. I am therefore struggling to see how to port our codebase to 0.13.0.  Can someone give me a steer? I'm assuming I'll need to create a specialised version of TThreadedServer or TServerFramework that takes a factory that creates boost threads.  Have I got this right?

Any help much appreciated.
Paul
