grpc with nanopb

[홍채희]

Hi.

I have a question about grpc using nanopb.

Is nanopb supporting grpc?

I wanted to make a grpc(c++ version) server/client app using nanopb that is in the third-party folder of grpc.

The protobuf compiler with nanopb option generated .pb.c and .pb.h files implemented by C.

I typed like "generator-bin/protoc --nanopb_out=. myprotocol.proto".

And when I compiled with grpc like "protoc -I ../../protos --grpc_out=. --plugin=protoc-gen-grpc=`which grpc_cpp_plugin` ../../protos/route_guide.proto ", it generated .grpc.pb.c and h files.

But I  I counldn't make an app bacause in .grpc.pb.h file, proto messages were defined as c++ class, and in pb.h file, these messages were defined as c structures.

If you don't support grpc now, do you have a plan to support that?

Thank you.

I have no plans to work on grpc support myself, but there is some
ongoing effort here:
