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.
Options
At the moment, only a handful of options are supported and all others will be ignored. Options are not currently accessible at runtime. Supported options are packed, deprecated, and default.
Todo
- improve generated deserialization code to actually use the wiretype properly
- 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 extensions (this is going to suck)
- support services (this may not happen at all)
- proper option support
