Protocol Buffers - Google's data interchange format =================================================== [](https://travis-ci.org/google/protobuf) [](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/protobuf/protobuf) Copyright 2008 Google Inc. https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/ C++ Installation - Unix ----------------------- To build protobuf from source, the following tools are needed: * autoconf * automake * libtool * curl (used to download gmock) * make * g++ * unzip On Ubuntu, you can install them with: $ sudo apt-get install autoconf automake libtool curl make g++ unzip On other platforms, please use the corresponding package managing tool to install them before proceeding. If you get the source from github, you need to generate the configure script first: $ ./autogen.sh This will download gmock source (which is used for C++ Protocol Buffer unit-tests) to the current directory and run automake, autoconf, etc. to generate the configure script and various template makefiles. You can skip this step if you are using a release package (which already contains gmock and the configure script). To build and install the C++ Protocol Buffer runtime and the Protocol Buffer compiler (protoc) execute the following: $ ./configure $ make $ make check $ sudo make install $ sudo ldconfig # refresh shared library cache. If "make check" fails, you can still install, but it is likely that some features of this library will not work correctly on your system. Proceed at your own risk. For advanced usage information on configure and make, please refer to the autoconf documentation: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Running-configure-Scripts **Hint on install location** By default, the package will be installed to /usr/local. However, on many platforms, /usr/local/lib is not part of LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You can add it, but it may be easier to just install to /usr instead. To do this, invoke configure as follows: ./configure --prefix=/usr If you already built the package with a different prefix, make sure to run "make clean" before building again. **Compiling dependent packages** To compile a package that uses Protocol Buffers, you need to pass various flags to your compiler and linker. As of version 2.2.0, Protocol Buffers integrates with pkg-config to manage this. If you have pkg-config installed, then you can invoke it to get a list of flags like so: pkg-config --cflags protobuf # print compiler flags pkg-config --libs protobuf # print linker flags pkg-config --cflags --libs protobuf # print both For example: c++ my_program.cc my_proto.pb.cc `pkg-config --cflags --libs protobuf` Note that packages written prior to the 2.2.0 release of Protocol Buffers may not yet integrate with pkg-config to get flags, and may not pass the correct set of flags to correctly link against libprotobuf. If the package in question uses autoconf, you can often fix the problem by invoking its configure script like: configure CXXFLAGS="$(pkg-config --cflags protobuf)" \ LIBS="$(pkg-config --libs protobuf)" This will force it to use the correct flags. If you are writing an autoconf-based package that uses Protocol Buffers, you should probably use the PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro in your configure script like: PKG_CHECK_MODULES([protobuf], [protobuf]) See the pkg-config man page for more info. If you only want protobuf-lite, substitute "protobuf-lite" in place of "protobuf" in these examples. **Note for Mac users** For a Mac system, Unix tools are not available by default. You will first need to install Xcode from the Mac AppStore and then run the following command from a terminal: $ sudo xcode-select --install To install Unix tools, you can install "port" following the instructions at https://www.macports.org . This will reside in /opt/local/bin/port for most Mac installations. $ sudo /opt/local/bin/port install autoconf automake libtool Then follow the Unix instructions above. **Note for cross-compiling** The makefiles normally invoke the protoc executable that they just built in order to build tests. When cross-compiling, the protoc executable may not be executable on the host machine. In this case, you must build a copy of protoc for the host machine first, then use the --with-protoc option to tell configure to use it instead. For example: ./configure --with-protoc=protoc This will use the installed protoc (found in your $PATH) instead of trying to execute the one built during the build process. You can also use an executable that hasn't been installed. For example, if you built the protobuf package for your host machine in ../host, you might do: ./configure --with-protoc=../host/src/protoc Either way, you must make sure that the protoc executable you use has the same version as the protobuf source code you are trying to use it with. **Note for Solaris users** Solaris 10 x86 has a bug that will make linking fail, complaining about libstdc++.la being invalid. We have included a work-around in this package. To use the work-around, run configure as follows: ./configure LDFLAGS=-L$PWD/src/solaris See src/solaris/libstdc++.la for more info on this bug. **Note for HP C++ Tru64 users** To compile invoke configure as follows: ./configure CXXFLAGS="-O -std ansi -ieee -D__USE_STD_IOSTREAM" Also, you will need to use gmake instead of make. **Note for AIX users** Compile using the IBM xlC C++ compiler as follows: ./configure CXX=xlC Also, you will need to use GNU `make` (`gmake`) instead of AIX `make`. C++ Installation - Windows -------------------------- If you only need the protoc binary, you can download it from the release page: https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases In the downloads section, download the zip file protoc-$VERSION-win32.zip. It contains the protoc binary as well as public proto files of protobuf library. To build from source using Microsoft Visual C++, see [cmake/README.md](../cmake/README.md). To build from source using Cygwin or MinGW, follow the Unix installation instructions, above. Binary Compatibility Warning ---------------------------- Due to the nature of C++, it is unlikely that any two versions of the Protocol Buffers C++ runtime libraries will have compatible ABIs. That is, if you linked an executable against an older version of libprotobuf, it is unlikely to work with a newer version without re-compiling. This problem, when it occurs, will normally be detected immediately on startup of your app. Still, you may want to consider using static linkage. You can configure this package to install static libraries only using: ./configure --disable-shared Usage ----- The complete documentation for Protocol Buffers is available via the web at: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/
