When we developed a custom extension for a client, our *own* developers requested that I include all the XML files in our packages, both stock and the ones we had written, for general convenience. Sure - the raw protocol descriptions are technically useless for C/C++ code where the bindings are known at build time, and code is always built against generated headers. But I can see the case for something higher-level where the core protocol is implemented statically and the server extensions are discovered at runtime.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
