Hi,
I realize I might be in the wrong thread but didn't find the perfect one, I'd appreciate if someone would point me to it if there is a better one.
I want to use Apache Thrift with Swift. All searches I make give me some other Swift library.
If there isn't one, I'd be happy to contribute to a Swift version of Apache Thrift but I'm not sure if I am up for the task of doing it all myself.
Thanks in advance for any pointers or hints.

Hi Peter,
you can use the Objective-C library with Swift. We are using this at our company and it works with no problems. I'm not sure if there are any plans at Apache to make a Swift version.

That is what I'll try at first. We'll see what the bridging brings with the new Xcode 7 and Swift 2. I never tried it with earlier versions but it didn't look to be very seamless.
Thanks

Hi Peter, we use Thrift for an iPad app but develop in Unity 3D using Mono C#. It is very straightforward to use, but recently I wanted to build the Thrift compiler in iOS to use some capabilities and ran into some problems with the instructions provided by apache. I am going to be working on buiulding the Thrift compiler for iOS and intgend to extend it to solve partticular features I need. Feel free to be in touch about it.
