class CppGenerator: public CodeGenerator

#include <google/protobuf/compiler/cpp/cpp_generator.h>
namespace google::protobuf::compiler::cpp

CodeGenerator implementation which generates a C++ source file and header.

If you create your own protocol compiler binary and you want it to support C++ output, you can do so by registering an instance of thisCodeGenerator with the CommandLineInterface in your main() function.

virtual bool CppGenerator::Generate(
        const FileDescriptor * file,
        const string & parameter,
        GeneratorContext * generator_context,
        string * error) const

Generates code for the given proto file, generating one or more files in the given output directory.

A parameter to be passed to the generator can be specified on the command line. This is intended to be used by Java and similar languages to specify which specific class from the proto file is to be generated, though it could have other uses as well. It is empty if no parameter was given.

Returns true if successful. Otherwise, sets *error to a description of the problem (e.g. "invalid parameter") and returns false.
