| The AcitveMQ Protocol Buffers Java Implementation |
| ======================================================================= |
| |
| Protocol Buffers is a data interchange format developed by |
| Google. You can get more information about Protocol Buffers |

| |
| Unfortunately the the main Protocol Buffer's project made the |
| Java API cumbersome to use since the messages are immutable. They |
| Justify this decision by highlighting the fact it reduces end user |
| error that occur with Mutable messages. |
| |
| This module brings you a slimmed down lean and mean API to accessing |
| Protocol Buffer data structures. It provides little protection |
| from end users 'hurting themselves', but it does give power user |
| and easier to use API. |
| |
| In addition, this module provides a Java based code generator so |
| that it's easier to code generate your Protocol Buffer classes in |
| a java based build system like Ant or Maven. |
