Re: [protobuf] Re: Portable protobuf compiler
Thanks osuciu - I checked into protoc-jar. Unfortunately, it suffers from the same problem I'm currently having - it just wraps a call to the C version of protoc for windows, osx and linux and provides those binaries embedded in the jar. This would be fine except, as the OP pointed out, protoc on linux is not portable from one linux distro to another. The readme.md file is not even clear as to which linux distro the linux version targets. I'm looking for a true native java port of the protoc compiler.

Re: [protobuf] Re: Portable protobuf compiler
The Linux protoc in protoc-jar is a static 64bit build, I think on some RedHat flavor. But it still has some .so dependencies, libc.so, etc. I'm guessing that's the issue? If some Linux expert could provide a fully static build (no shared libs at all), I think that should work on most Linuxes. Happy to include it in protoc-jar Porting the whole thing to Java sounds great but may not be that trivial, not sure Cheers --Oliver On Tuesday, June 24, 2014 8:31:08 AM UTC-7, John Calcote wrote: Thanks Feng Xiao- I checked into protoc-jar.
