Hey Padraig, I followed your blog post a while back,
http://posulliv.github.com/2010/02/22/cpp-cassandra.html and was able to get my c++ thrift interface working. I would like to switch over to libcassandra, but I am getting build errors on Debian. What platform are you on? I am experiencing libtool wackiness which (judging by googling on the errors) are fairly common. I read several strings of comments but am not familiar with m4 or autoconf to know what is going on. Can you help? Thanks very much, Jack $ pwd /home/jack/libcassandra $ config/autorun.sh config/autorun.sh: running `/usr/bin/libtoolize --automake --copy --force' config/autorun.sh: running `/usr/bin/aclocal-1.10 -I m4' config/autorun.sh: running `/usr/bin/autoheader' config/autorun.sh: running `/usr/bin/automake-1.10 --add-missing --copy --force' config/autorun.sh: running `/usr/bin/autoconf' --- Configured with the following tools: * libtoolize (GNU libtool) 1.5.26 * aclocal (GNU automake) 1.10.1 * autoheader (GNU Autoconf) 2.61 * automake (GNU automake) 1.10.1 * autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61 --- $ ./configure checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for style of include used by make...
