Since it doesn't really have a name -besides "protobuf," calling this directory "googlepb" seems like the -least confusing option, since it lives in the google::protobuf -namespace. - -We support writing into protobuf's generated classes (and hopefully -reading too, before long). We support both the open source protobuf -release and the Google-internal version (which is mostly the same -code, just in a different namespace). A single compile of upb can -support both (there are no conflicts thanks to function overloading). - -The internal version supports some features that are not supported in -the open-source release. Also, the internal version includes the -legacy "proto1" classes which we must support; thankfully this is -mostly relegated to its own separate file. - -Our functionality requires the full google::protobuf::Message -interface; we rely on reflection so we know what fields to read/write -and where to put them, so we can't support MessageLite. |
