From 7d3e2bd2c4cfd1296d1d6f996d7548de26540d41 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Haberman Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2013 16:27:18 -0800 Subject: Sync with 8 months of Google-internal development. Many things have changed and been simplified. The memory-management story for upb_def and upb_handlers is much more robust; upb_def and upb_handlers should be fairly stable interfaces now. There is still much work to do for the runtime component (upb_sink). --- upb/google/README | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+) create mode 100644 upb/google/README (limited to 'upb/google/README') diff --git a/upb/google/README b/upb/google/README new file mode 100644 index 0000000..a237583 --- /dev/null +++ b/upb/google/README @@ -0,0 +1,16 @@ +This directory contains code to interoperate with Google's official +Protocol Buffers release.

We support both the open source protobuf +release and the Google-internal version of the same code. The two +live in different namespaces, and the internal version supports some +features that are not supported in the open-source release.
