I am currently looking at 2.4 version of Google Protocol Buffers and when I use the feature of option optimize_for = LITE_RUNTIME and extensions, it generates classes in different hierarchy and the call to method essage.class.isAssignableFrom(type); returns false.

Nice article. Very helpful.
I have one question though. Is there a straightforward way in which to provide support for both protobuf and xml mime types with the Jersey framework? There is a work around – http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-java-format. But I would like to know if there is an easy, straight forward answer to this.

Thanks,

However, I keep getting error like this:

SEVERE: A message body reader for Java type, class com.example.tutorial.ProfileRequestProto$ProfileRequest, and MIME media type, application/x-protobuf, was not found

I posted in stackoverflow, but it seems it is getting no reply.

Do you know whats causing this?
Any help will be appreciate it.

Thanks

My windows 7 updated some patches when reboot yesterday. And after reboot, I rerun the test cases.
It works. The case failure should be caused by windows 7.

Thanks for the wonderful article.

I've downloaded the sample code, and get all test cases passed. But when I modify a single line in the AddressBookService.java, where I just changed the setName(“Sam”) to setName(“David”), and I modified the name used in Junit testcase too. But after after name modified, the cases fail, I think the result is cached, or there is bug in java restful service or in somewhere else… My os is Windows 7, jdk 1.6.0_20. Could the cases pass on your machine if something changed?

ps, I deleted all old classes, and re compile the sample code after code modification. even I restarted the OS, the cases fail too. But when I change the resource path from “person” to something else like “man”, the cases pass.
