Peace C commented on THRIFT-1690:
---------------------------------

The fixes are very much appreciated. We're not building 64-bit yet but when the time comes this will be beneficial.

A consequence of the restructuring (wrapping the Pipe classes with #ifdef _WIN32 and typedef'ing the name for *NIX) is that it's more difficult to implement anonymous pipes for *NIX. It'll be alot of duplicated code since all the Pipe related methods will need to be replicated for *NIX. It also makes the calling code less platform-agnostic. With these changes, the calling code can't be cross-platform for Windows & *NIX because, for example, setPipename doesn't exist in TServerSocket. You've just moved the burden of the #ifdefs from the abstract Pipe class to the calling code. That was the motivation for casting HANDLE to int and vice-versa. Perhaps we could cast between IntPtr instead?

> On 64-bit Windows, "int" is a 32-bit value.  SOCKET and HANDLE are 64-bit.
> All of the files dealing with sockets in thrift use "int" as the type of a socket, as this is the idiomatic way to handle sockets on POSIX systems.  For portability, a SOCKET typedef is probably needed.
> For the Pipe Server and Pipe Transport, HANDLEs are cast to ints to store as member variables for some reason (maybe to avoid #including <windows.h> in a header?).
> Both of these situations can result in invalid handles being used (and valid handles being leaked) when the system is under load.
