Compression is not a built-in feature of protocol buffers, but it is easy
and often useful to apply compression on top of the protobuf encoding.
In Java, write your data to a GZIPOoutputStream, and then read from a
GZIPInputStream. These classes are part of the standard Java library, not
the
Are C++ and Java GZip streams compatible?

In terms of output? GZIP / DEFLATE / etc implementations should be
interoperable between platforms, yes. However IIRC the compressed stream is
not guaranteed to be byte-identical between specific implementations (but
the *decompressed* stream should be byte-identical)

I mean: if I use Java's GzipOutputStream and then read compressed data using
C++'s GzipInputStream, will it work?
In other words, are generated streams pure Gzip compliant, in the sense
there are no special headers. Could I use unix gzip to unzip a file which
its content was generated by Java or

Yes. For C++,
HI All,
Can anyone let me know whether the encoded file can be compressed
while sending it and decompressed at the receiver's end?
The problem is like i have a message structure which has many field
and consumes more bytes. So can i compress and Decompress them?
thanks,
