I'm using Cassandra 0.7beta3 and it's running on localhost:9160 and Python works with it just fine. So, I go to run C++ against the system and I get:
TTransportException: No more data to read. I did the thrift --gen cpp interface/cassandra.thrift in my 0.7beta3 folder then included those files in the C++ code, and it builds fine, and runs. It bombs out on the set_keyspace call... the code is short so I'll paste it here (not counting includes and using calls): --- const string host("localhost"); const int port= 9160; int main() { try { boost::shared_ptr<TSocket> socket(new TSocket(host, port)); boost::shared_ptr<TTransport> transport(new TBufferedTransport(socket)); boost::shared_ptr<TProtocol> protocol(new TBinaryProtocol(transport)); CassandraClient client(protocol); transport->open(); string version; client.set_keyspace("Crawldata"); transport->close(); } catch (apache::thrift::transport::TTransportException &tte) { cout << "TTransportException: " << tte.what() << endl; } return 0; } --- It throws this same error with a series of other calls. This is probably (hopefully) something stupid I'm missing. Do I really need to run the C++ server component (which seems superfluous since it's not actually my Cassandra instance) as detailed here: http://wiki.apache.org/thrift/ThriftUsageC%2B%2B -- David Replogle | Senior Programmer Analyst Catalyst SGC 44 Grandville Ave SW, Ste. 270, Grand Rapids, MI 49503 Office: 616.855.5522 x204 | Mobile: 616.293.2788
