OK, so far I like GPB. However, I have a very simple question, but one which I can't find an answer for:
I have created a test Java application that uses ObjectInputStream and ObjectOutputStream over sockets. No problems, it works! I use my GPB class writeTo and parseFrom to send and reconstitute my GPB class using the ObjectInput and Output Streams.... But: isn't GPB allowing for serialization using bytes? Are Object I/O Streams the best streams to use? Should I be using something else like Data I/O streams? E.g. from JavaDocs, "An ObjectOutputStream writes primitive data types and graphs of Java objects to an OutputStream" -is there a better, more efficient I/O stream I should be using? My concern is that when it comes to attempting to open a socket to a C+ + app, I assume the correct I/O stream type should be used. If anyone has a working example of best practice using Data I/O streams or a recommended stream type, that would be extremely useful for me (even better if someone has a simple Java to C++ using sockets example).
