This project contains the protobuf definition files used by Drill. The java sources are generated into src/main/java and checked in. To regenerate the sources after making changes to .proto files --------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Ensure that the protobuf 'protoc' tool (version 2.5 or newer) is in your PATH (you may need to download and build it first). You can download it from http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/downloads/list. 2. In protocol dir, run "mvn process-sources -P proto-compile" or "mvn clean install -P proto-compile". 3. Check in the new/updated files.
