thrift (1)

thrift [options] source_file

Thrift is a framework for efficient serialization and RPC services. The thrift compiler accepts a source file containing definitions of Thrift structs and services, and generates the language-specific code to implement them.

-version

print the compiler version and exit

-o DIRECTORY

Set the output directory for gen-* packages (default: current directory)

-out DIRECTORY

Set the ouput location for generated files. (no gen-* folder will be created)

-I DIRECTORY

Add a directory to the list of directories searched for include directives

-nowarn

Suppress all compiler warnings (BAD!)

-strict

Strict compiler warnings on

-v[erbose]

Verbose mode

-r[ecurse]

Also generate included files

-debug

Parse debug trace to stdout

--gen STRING

Generate code with a dynamically-registered generator. STRING has the form language[:key1=val1[,key2,[key3=val3]]]. Keys and values are options passed to the generator. Many options will not require values. For a complete list of supported generators, run thrift without arguments.

Thrift is a top-level project of the Apache Software Foundation, (see http://thrift.apache.org).
