Binary Serialization with Google Protocol Buffers – grijjy blog
Google's Protocol Buffers are a flexible, compact and extensible mechanism for serializing structured data. We share our implementation that makes it easy to serialize Delphi records to a binary format that is 100% compatible with the Protocol Buffers specification.
Want to go straight to the source? You can find it on GitHub in our GrijjyFoundation repository in the single unit Grijjy.ProtocolBuffers.
Protocol Buffers?
In Google's own words: "Protocol buffers are Google's language-neutral, platform-neutral, extensible mechanism for serializing structured data – think XML, but smaller, faster, and simpler."
You can use it is a binary interchange format to send data over the wire, to communicate with 3rd party applications that support Protocol Buffers, or even to create a light weight but extensible file format.
