NAME

Thrift::XS - Faster Thrift binary protocol encoding and decoding

SYNOPSIS

    use Thrift;
    use Thrift::Socket;
    use Thrift::FramedTransport;
    use Thrift::XS::BinaryProtocol;
    use MyThriftInterface;
    
    my $socket    = Thrift::Socket->new( $host, $port );
    my $transport = Thrift::FramedTransport->new($socket);
    my $protocol  = Thrift::XS::BinaryProtocol->new($transport);
    my $client    = MyThriftInterface->new($protocol);
    
    $transport->open;
    
    $client->api_call( @args );
    

DESCRIPTION

Thrift::XS provides faster versions of Thrift::BinaryProtocol and Thrift::MemoryBuffer. On average it is about 4-6 times faster.

Thrift compact protocol support is also available, just replace Thrift::XS::BinaryProtocol with Thrift::XS::CompactProtocol.

To use, simply replace your Thrift initialization code with the appropriate Thrift::XS version.
