C# socket server
I want to create a server app capable of accepting multiple
thrift-clients. As each thrift client connects, it must send a login
struct, which will be a username and password.
I have looked at the C# classes, and I am not sure where to start. I
can create the socket server, but I am unsure which class I need to
attach to my socket.

I would live to contribute to the wiki, but I seem to be lost in a sea
of undocumented C# abstract classes at the moment. :)

I've got nothing to add really, but would like to use the opportunity to

There is no TSerializer/TDeserializer, or at least nothing that looks
like that. Lots of abstract classes.
There is a TStreamTransport. I'll have another look at that.

Yes, I have looked at the tests. My server application may take up to
1000's of simultaneous connections. I am using the Socket class with
ASycronious callbacks to implement an asynchronous server. Thrift uses
TCPListener, and TCPClient, and is creating a new thread for every
connection.
So I would rather handle the sockets myself, and just pass the incoming
data to Thrift for decoding.
Looking at it another way, if i wanted to store thrift data in a
database table, how would I pass the data to and from thrift?

Have you tried the tests?
If you look in trunk/test/csharp you should see more information. I am not
really sure what you are trying to accomplish but aren't able to.
See http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=665633 It provides both a
server and a client.

Does anyone know how to Serialize/Deserialize thrift data in C#? I
have played around with TStreamTransport for a couple of days now, and I
dont think it's going to be suitable. I want each socket connection to
run asynchronously, without having to spawn hundreds or thousands of
threads. Easy enough to do, except the C# thrift code is quite
fragmented, and hard to know where to start.

Then you're looking for whatever the equivalent of TSerializer/
TDeserializer is in C#. You could also possibly use the equivalent of
TIOStreamTransport, if there is one.

I already have tried & tested C# code to create a socket server, that
will run 1000's of incoming connections, and take care of
authentication, time-outs etc.
I want to rip out the proprietary protocol that is being used, and tie
it into thrift. I cant quite get my head around the class library.
Could do with a block diagram to understand the hierarchy.

The examples show how to set up a TCP connection, but not how to attach
the transport to an existing socket.

The login part is easy. You just create a method called login that returns
a magic token. Then all subsequent requests use the token (which should be
signed and a little hard to reuse).
Insofar as how to plug into the C# server, this is just like creating any
other thrift server. See the examples.
