The "ProtocolBuffers" page has been changed by SteveLoughran: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ProtocolBuffers?action=diff&rev1=1&rev2=2 !ProtocolBuffers is an open source project supporting Google's !ProtocolBuffer's platform-neutral and language-neutral interprocess-communication (IPC) and serialization framework. It has an Interface Definition Language (IDL) that is used to describe the wire- and file formats; this IDL is then pre-compiled into source code for the target languages (Python, Java and C++ included), which are then used in the applications. - Hadoop 0.23+ requires the protocol buffers JAR to be on the classpath of both clients and servers; the native binaries are required to compile this and later versions of Hadoop. + Hadoop 0.23+ requires the protocol buffers JAR (protobufs.jar) to be on the classpath of both clients and servers; the native binaries are required to compile this and later versions of Hadoop. In comparison with previous IDLs (such as CORBA, DCOM and !SunOS RPC), !ProtocolBuffers are designed to be * Simple remote procedure calls (not Object-Oriented communication in the style of CORBA).
