Is there a way to read selective fields without deserializing the entire object?
My serialized message is stored in memory as a (Heap)ByteBuffer. I'm trying to find out if any of the (de-)serialization frameworks allow a way to read specific fields without having to deserialize the entire message. The message has almost 200 fields - mostly Strings and a few long and int fields. Deserialization is expensive and creates too much garbage considering the fact that I just need to read 1-2 fields. Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group. To post to this group, send email to proto...@googlegroups.com.
