Description

Build fail of project lib\cpp\libthrift.vcxproj due to compile error

1>c:\...\thrift\lib\cpp\src\thrift\transport\tsslsocket.cpp(69): error C3861: 'pthread_self': identifier not found

The current Thrift code calls pthread_self() which is not available on Windows platform in current Thrift library dependency set.

Herein I propose resolution by using native WINAPI equivalent GetCurrentThreadId() in case source is compiled when _WIN32 macro is defined.
