Title: R Interface to the 'Protocol Buffers' 'API' (Version 2 or 3)
Description: Protocol Buffers are a way of encoding structured data in
        an efficient yet extensible format. Google uses Protocol
        Buffers for almost all of its internal 'RPC' protocols and file
        formats.  Additional documentation is available in two included
        vignettes one of which corresponds to our 'JSS' paper (2016,
        <doi:10.18637/jss.v071.i02>. A sufficiently recent version of
        'Protocol Buffers' library is required; currently version 3.3.0
        from 2017 is the tested minimum.
Imports: methods, utils, stats, tools, Rcpp
LinkingTo: Rcpp
Suggests: tinytest
SystemRequirements: ProtoBuf libraries and compiler version 3.3.0 or
        later; On Debian/Ubuntu these can be installed as
        libprotoc-dev, libprotobuf-dev and protobuf-compiler, while on
        Fedora/CentOS protobuf-devel and protobuf-compiler are needed.
        A modern compiler is required as well.
