protoc - New flags --encode and --decode can be used to convert between protobuf text format and binary format from the command-line. - New flag --descriptor_set_out can be used to write FileDescriptorProtos for all parsed files directly into a single output file. This is particularly useful if you wish to parse .proto files from programs written in languages other than C++: just run protoc as a background process and have it output a FileDescriptorList, then parse that natively. C++ - Reflection objects are now per-class rather than per-instance. To make this possible, the Reflection interface had to be changed such that all methods take the Message instance as a parameter. This change improves performance significantly in memory-bandwidth-limited use cases, since it makes the message objects smaller. Note that source-incompatible interface changes like this will not be made again after the library leaves beta. Python - MergeFrom(message) and CopyFrom(message) are now implemented. - SerializeToString() raises an exception if the message is missing required fields. - Code organization improvements. - Fixed doc comments for RpcController and RpcChannel, which had somehow been swapped. |
