Overview
ProtocolBuffer is a D library encompassing the basic tools required to compile .proto definition files into code and additional functions that are used by the resulting source file. The backend library is separated from the definition compiler for now, but those may merge in the future.
Todo
- do accessors properly and correct function names (and add additional functions)
- implement message merging (it already works on the bytestream level, so I may just use that, even though it is less efficient)
- support options
- default is only supported on optional fields
- packed is only supported on repeated fields of a primitive type
- deprecated is supported on optional and repeated types
- for now, I will only support options which I know something about, others will throw exceptions or I may lob them into a structure
- support imports (yeah, I know, I'm lame for not already supporting this)
- support extensions (this is going to suck)
- support services (this may not happen at all)
