The installation of thrift-11.04 in Ubuntu 0.8.0 may be due to the fact that ubuntu is not commonly used. It takes a day to get it done! I installed thrift plugin today, decompress tar-xzvf thrift-0.8.0.tar.gz www.2cto.com thrift Website: thrift.apache.org install thrift under Ubuntu is actually very simple (you can refer to the wiki to do, But please note the following remarks for beginners): 1. Check whether the system has installed G ++, terminal-> g ++. If not, use sudo apt-get install g ++. 2. Check whether the system has installed make, terminal-> make. If it is not installed, you can use sudo apt-get install make 3. If it is not installed, an error will be reported, terminal-> sudo apt-get install python-dev 4. install the thrift dependency package, mainly boost, etc. Refer to the wiki Wizard: Gett Inglettupackages terminal-> sudo apt-get install libboost-dev libboost-test-dev libboost-program-options-dev libevent-dev automake libtool flex bison pkg-config g + libssl-dev 5. Compile thrift, go to the thrift-0.8.0 file: www.2cto.com cd thrift-0.8.0. /configure sudo make install Note: Please note the sudo before make and make install. Otherwise, an error may be reported and the thrift command cannot be generated! Author: caodaoxi
