FWIW, I had never heard of this before today, and I make a point of keeping tabs on these kinds of things.

This has been implemented internally; the next open-source release should have it.

- haberman 12y agoSeems likely, though I couldn't say for sure. I am sure you will recognize a lot of the design. :)
- swah 12y agoDid you have a say on the choice of language? I ask because I remember those posts http://blog.reverberate.org/2009/12/torn-over-c-question.html http://blog.reverberate.org/2009/12/torn-over-c-question.htm...
- haberman 12y agoI don't understand your question -- the choice of language for what? The blog article you linked is about my own protobuf implementation "upb", which is separate from anything else we've been talking about in this thread.
