recursive file compilation

[Idan Noti]

Hi,
I need to compile a whole tree of .proto files.

Is it possible to invoke the protoc on all the files at once?

I know that I can invoke the protoc with several files in the command line, but I need a way to do this from a file containing a list of all files.

There is no built-in support for this in protoc. However, most build
systems and command shells are capable of putting the file names as
arguments on the command line.

Refer to the user guide of the build system you are using to see how to
add a custom build command to use for .proto files.

Hi there, did you ever end up writing a script for this?
