The GAE docs ( https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastore/functions) imply that the open sourced implementation of protobuf (https://code.google.com/p/protobuf/) is not supported, but they do not mention if anything is supported.
I'm further confused whether the Google Cloud Datastore API ( https://developers.google.com/datastore/docs/apis/v1beta2/proto) uses the same protobuf implementation. If I use virtualenv to pip install protobuf, then I get the following error (presumably because the "google" package without "protobuf" is already on the system path). ImportError: No module named protobuf There are numerous hacks to work around this (e.g., https://code.google.com/p/protobuf-gae-hack). Is anything officially "supported"? Are there any examples of this working (official, github, etc.)? Thanks, RB -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
