Thanks for your answers!
Just another ``trivial´´ question:
Let's assume that I've installed Protocol Buffers on my Windows(tm)
machine so that I'm able to generate language-specific stubs. I could
transfer them to the target system runnnig Solaris. Do the stubs still
depend on a protocol
The source code generated by protoc is identical regardless of what platform
protoc itself is executed on. The runtime library is always required.
The Java code (and the Python code, and probably Perl too though that's a
third-party implementation) is completely platform-neutral so it should work

Linux, Visual Studio, Cygwin, MinGW, and Mac OSX, and Monty Taylor has been
testing on Solaris with Sun Studio. It probably works on other
