Sorry guys. Yes, I asked for something else. My bad. How exactly this will handle the problem with the different output files?

Right, the link is to a build system plugin. I'm all for build system plugins for protocol buffers but those wouldn't involve changing protoc. As for the dependencies ... gcc _does_ have options (-MD -MP -MF) to spit out depends that it determines from following include files in Makefile format. I'd definitely accept adding an option like that to protoc, if someone sends me a patch, though this is pretty different from what George was asking for. So I would be in favor of protoc including support for the second. I have no interest (and actually a negative interest) in protoc handling the first thing - that's a job for a build system) Sounds like we're in agreement here. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
