This repository (system_api.git) contains constants and definitions like
 | 
						|
D-Bus service names that are shared between Chromium and Chromium OS.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This repository is only for things like headers and .proto files.
 | 
						|
No implementation should be added.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When writting a .proto file make sure to use:
 | 
						|
"option optimize_for = LITE_RUNTIME;"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This will force usage of a lite protobuf instead of a full/heavy weight
 | 
						|
protobuf. The browser only links against the light version, so you will get
 | 
						|
cryptic link errors about missing parts of Message if you define a protobuf here
 | 
						|
and then try to use it in Chrome. Currently CrOS links against the full
 | 
						|
protobuffer library, but that might change in the future.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When declaring a protobuf, avoid use of required unless it is exactly what you
 | 
						|
mean. "Required is Forever" and very rarely should actually be used. Consult
 | 
						|
http://code.google.com/apis/protocolbuffers/docs/cpptutorial.html for a detailed
 | 
						|
of this issue. |
