1Apache Thrift contrib folder 2======================================== 3 4The code in the /contrib folder is not maintained on a regular basis and its purpose is mainly to serve 5as repository of (a) sample code what can be done with Thrift and (b) possibly helpfil utilities or other 6potentially useful stuff. 7 8You are of course free to provide patches for it, but other than that, the contrib stuff may or may not 9work for your purpose, environment or software version, as it does not part of regular testing procedures. 10 11Below are some links (3rd-party sites) that lead you to some fairly good explanations of how it works. 12 13 * https://drewdevault.com/2020/06/06/Add-a-contrib-directory.html 14 * https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/252053/whats-in-the-contrib-folder 15 16
