protobuf-embedded-c

What is Protobuf-Embedded-C ? A protocol buffers generator for resource constrained embedded applications written in the C programming language. For example, you may employ Protobuf-Embedded-C to let tiny embedded devices communicate directly with each other or with servers running large scale business applications. These following guidelines drive Protobuf-Embedded-C: 1. Generated C-code runs on low-power and low-memory embedded controllers. 1. Generated C-code runs on real-time systems with static memory allocation. 1. Code is completely generated, so it is self-contained (no libraries on the target device). 1. API is easy to learn and (where possible) close to the concepts of the original protobuf implementations by Google. Please note, that these guidelines imply reduced functionality, yet powerful enough to get the typical protobuf communication jobs done. New and Noteworthy June 2013: Protobuf-Embedded-C
