No, there's no version backward-compatibility like this. protobuf library
only works with the matching protoc generated files.
There's a feature

for reporting errors when the protoc runtime library versions don't
match.

Hi,
After finishing our project using latest protobuf-java-2.4.0a jar and
corresponding protoc compiler, we came to know that there are usages
of protobuf-2.0.3.jar (which is older) in our system. So, now it turns
only one of these jars can exists.
Can you guys let me know whether there will be any problem when the
old jar is replaced with new 2.4.0a jar?
I agree that I have test the behavior anyway, still I would like to
know whether Google Protocol Buffers officially support this version
backward-comaptibility?
Thanks,
