----------------------------------

             Summary: Generate interface IDs (IID) for Windows platforms
                 Key: THRIFT-5154
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5154
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Delphi - Compiler
            Reporter: Jens Geyer
            Assignee: Jens Geyer


Although Delphi allows for interfaces without an assigned IID (or GUID), certain operations do indeed require a IID, such as {{[SysUtils.Supports()|http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/Rio/en/System.SysUtils.Supports]}}.

Hence, to support such "Delphi interface best practices" it would be extremely helpful if the generator could create a valid IID at least for Windows platforms (which is Delphi's natural target and development platform).

The code should be held easily expandable to support other platforms in the future.
