You could use https://github.com/sijuv/protobuf-codec . You can check the
test case at
https://github.com/sijuv/protobuf-codec/blob/master/protobuf-codec-json/src/test/java/protobuf/codec/json/JsonCodecTest.javafor
usage. This library is listed under the google protobuf
ThirdPartyAddOns
wiki as Another JSON encoder/decoder for
Javahttps://github.com/sijuv/protobuf-codec.
Let me know if you run into any issues.
Regards.

You should probably contact the authors of protobuf-java-format; I'm not
sure if they pay attention to this list.
Base64 is the best way to encode arbitrary (non-text) data as text.
However, it's really up to the JSON converter code you are using to decide
what format to use. As far as I know, JSON does not specify any particular
encoding for arbitrary bytes.

Thanks for the reply.
I encoded Hello world in Base64 and I got this SGVsbG8gd29ybGQ=.
That doesn't look close to the format I sent in the question. Here's
the code snippet I used:
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64;
public class Codec {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
String clearText = Hello world;
// Base64
System.out.println(Encoded: +
Base64.encodeBase64String(clearText.getBytes()));
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
I'm using this: http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-java-format/ for
JSON -- PB conversion

You will probably need to base64-encode bytes fields before embedding
them
in JSON, since JSON is a text format.
Which JSON - protobuf converter are you using? Or did you write your
own?

Hello,
One of our customers is still using legacy Java 1.4 and therefore
could not use PB. For that we created an intermediate service that
receives text messages in plain JSON format then convert them into
generated PB objects.
In one object we have a field named desc of type bytes which will
hold a textual description of the arriving message. When the customer
wants to send English text for desc the value in JSON will be plain
readable English, but if non-ASCII is to be used, how the value in
JSON will look like? It look to me something like:
\0069\0062\006J\0062\006J\000 \006\'\006D\0069\006E\006J\006D\006\f
\000 \006D\006B\006/\000 \006\'\006F\006*\006G\006I\000
But I really don't know how to get this out of non-ASCII characters.
Can anyone help?
