[jira] [Commented] (THRIFT-4223) Add support to the isServing() method for the C++ library

["James E. King, III (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-4223:
--------------------------------------------

I've never had a need to ask the server if it is running or not in C++.  TServer::serve() does not return until it is done serving.  There should be no race conditions.  Can you elaborate on "race conditions between the server and the client" a bit more?  If you are looking for a barrier on which you can inform the rest of your application that thrift is listening on the server port, you can give your TServer a TServerEventHandler implementation that overrides TServerEventHandler::preServe().  This notification can be used to learn when the server is accepting connections (listening) on the server socket, to coordinate tests or other parts of your application.

> It is important to add support to the isServing() method for the C++ library and in the other supported languages. This method is already exposed on the Java library. 
> This method is very useful to determine when exactly the server is in listening state and also can be used to fix for example race conditions between the server and the client.
