[protobuf] Re: Protobuf over HTTP

2010-11-25 Thread mvbaffa
Thanks Marc,

Just one more question.

Can I use protobuf-net for RPC Services 
If Yes can these services be written and driven by WCF services, with
WsHttpBinding or TCPBinding ???

Thanks again,

WCF can provide RPC, and protobuf-net can elbow it's way inside WCF *for
some scenarios*. One option here is simply with some WCF configuration
changes:
http://marcgravell.blogspot.com/2009/11/controlling-wcf-protobuf-net-at.html
It isn't specific to any particular binding - but works best for bindings
that are happy with binary - my /preferred/ binding here is basicHttpBinding
with MTOM enabled.

But : any other RPC mechanism that allows binary transports should be usable
in some way or another. At the simplest level, an HTTP post with a binary
payload, or a simple socket server (if you are happy to wrap your own
dispatcher on the end).

[protobuf] Re: Protobuf over HTTP

2010-11-24 Thread mvbaffa
I will look for the threads, Thank you.

I have a huge legacy in WCF/JSON and WCF/WsHttpBinding. I need to make
it work with Flex. I have already used Fluorine but I would like to
use protobuf now for my services.

I intend to use protobuf-net in the server and protobuf-actionscript3
in the client. This is the first time I use protobuf. I need an
example, specially in Flex. If I use in the server a WCF/protobuf-net
how could I call in ActionScript this service.

To be frank I still do not understand how to configure protobuf. How
do I define the endpoints in Flex using the URLRequest,
HttpService ???

Pavel and Marc, please, can you send some code so that I can test the
Flex and WCF.

Thanks in advance

 Nothing difficult, just set propert Content-Type and be happy

Re: [protobuf] Re: Protobuf over HTTP

2010-11-24 Thread Marc Gravell
As yet, there is no single common RPC standard for use with protobuf. 
Protobuf-net hacks itself into WCF by swapping out some WCF guts, but while 
that will work with WCF-to-WCF it won't make sense to flex. That is why I 
suggested just sending a byte-array, since this is easily represented by most 
platforms (either as base-64 or MTOM). Of course you then need to deal with the 
byte-array at each end, but that is not usually a problem.

[protobuf] Re: Protobuf over HTTP

2010-11-24 Thread mvbaffa
I supposed I could send information from Flex using ProtoBuf-
Actionscript and a WCF Service using a ProtoBufSerializationBehavior,
from protobuf-net, could receive and deserialize the information. In
that case I would need only to make avaiable the same services I
already have with a diferent behaviour configuration.

Is this is a correct assumption 

This way I can make, almost automatically, everything that is already
working for Javascript to work for Flex/Air. That's why to use
protobuf-net in the server is so important.

The problem is to make Protobuf work  for actionscript. I can already
compile my .proto in .as classes. What I need is a simple getting
started to make Flex send and receive protobuf packages.

Is there anyone that can publish a simple code to send and receive
protubuf in actionscript ???

Thanks in advance.

That all depends on how ProtoBuf-Actionscript encodes the payload. I know
