I have a protocol buffer where I'm encoding audio snippets, containing a small header, and a few hundred kilobytes of (mono or stereo, multiplexed or not) audio data, as bytes. However, due to the nature of the intermittent communications, the message may get truncated at some point, most probably past the header, but therefore truncating a significant chunk of the audio bytes.
As even the initial part of the audio could be useful (if the remaining bits gets lost) - is there a way to safely deserialize a protocol buffer message where the end has been chopped off? I've tested deserializing a message where the last byte was removed - this causes an exception (using the Java API), and apparently no way to get the partial message, and most importantly, the partial bytes. Any ideas on how I could go to solve this problem? Kind regards, Ernest -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
