[protobuf] WSDL Vs PB

2010-11-09 Thread maninder batth
In typical WS-* webservice,  WSDL describes a service interface,
abstracts from underlying communication protocol and serialization and
deserialization as well as service implementation platform.
Where does PB fits in this picture? Is  .proto file, equivalent to
WSDL? Or should i view it as simply serialization and deserialization
description file ?

The .proto could serve this role, or you could use a FileDescriptorSet PB.
