Hello,
I'd like to see if any prior work has been done in customizing protobuf
compilation to support message encoding/decoding against a legacy wire
format.
Put another way, I'm interested in:
1. specifying an existing protocol using protobuf's .proto file syntax, and
2. reusing protobuf's
There are two ways to support custom wire format with protobufs.
1. Implement the parsing/serializing code as a runtime library. The text
format support in protobuf can be seen as such a library. Support for
Json/XML is also done using this approach. It relies on the protobuf
reflection support
