If yes, how?

Thank you for short guidance and help.

The 'bytes' type can store arbitrary content.

If you want to transfer huge files, they you might want to design a protocol araound it by sending chunks that each

are less than 2GBytes, possibly much smaller.

message FileChunk {

   optional int64 offset = 1;

   optional bytes data = 2;

}

Note, protocol buffers are just providing the encoding of your data, the network protocol you still have to do yourself.

-h

 

If yes, how?

Well, you need to write your protocol and code that does that. Protobuf  allows you to write the protocol efficiently and platform independently - but you have to write the code for whatever you want to do. Be it making coffee, deleting files or blinking LEDs.

-h
