Pere Ferrera Bertran commented on MAPREDUCE-377: ------------------------------------------------ PB integration with Hadoop is now possible by using Protostuff (http://code.google.com/p/protostuff/) by calling ProtobufIOUtil.writeDelimitedTo() and ProtobufIOUtil.mergeDelimitedFrom() . These methods avoid the problem with consuming too many bytes from the stream. > Add serialization for Protocol Buffers > -------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-377 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-377 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: Tom White > Assignee: Alex Loddengaard > Attachments: hadoop-3788-v1.patch, hadoop-3788-v2.patch, > hadoop-3788-v3.patch, protobuf-java-2.0.1.jar, protobuf-java-2.0.2.jar > > > Protocol Buffers (http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/) are a way of encoding > data in a compact binary format.
