Two programs are provided, each with three different +implementations, one written in each of C++, Java, and Python. The add_person +example adds a new person to an address book, prompting the user to input +the person's information. The list_people example lists people already in the +address book. The examples use the exact same format in all three languages, +so you can, for example, use add_person_java to create an address book and then +use list_people_python to read it. + +You must install the protobuf package before you can build these. + +To build all the examples (on a unix-like system), simply run "make". This +creates the following executable files in the current directory: + add_person_cpp list_people_cpp + add_person_java list_people_java + add_person_python list_people_python + +If you only want to compile examples in one language, use "make cpp", +"make java", or "make python". + +All of these programs simply take an address book file as their parameter. +The add_person programs will create the file if it doesn't already exist. + +These examples are part of the Protocol Buffers tutorial, located at: + http://code.google.com/apis/protocolbuffers/docs/tutorials.html -- cgit v1.2.3
