> In some situations it is helpful to be able to get the origin of a thrift call.
> Some transport like TSocket provide methods for this ({{getPeerAddress}}).
> However to access this a cast is required and the transport type hase to be known.
> This patch adds a new method called {{getOrigin}} to TTransport. The function returns a string representing the origin of the call.
> The implementation of {{getOrigin}} is transport specific.
> E.g. the TSocket transport returns the IP and port of the remote socket.
> Transports that don't know about the origin just return _Unknown_.
