Hello, I am looking into protobufs and I have the following question: 1) Is it possible to define message structures at runtime? I have an application that sends out protobufs, but does not know how the message looks like at first (because they can change over time). So before sending, it would compose the message according to a structure (given field names and types).
2) Also I would like to send out the message structure to the receiving application. This way the receiving application could adapt to the messages sent by the first application. Is it possible to send such message structures with protobufs, as well? Of course I would create a message type for the exchange of message structure and use protoc for this (this message type will not change over time). So are those to cases possible? I have found https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/protobuf/bWlJaaMmx4Q but I have no idea how to create a message. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
