Re: Replacing classes during custom serialization

This is slightly OT but... Thomas, do you think it would be possible to use a custom serialization approach server-side to translate protocol buffers on the fly to/from parallel GWT classes?
   Our situation is this: We have lots of protocol buffer definitions that we pass around between AppEngine, Android, iOS, and WP8. Since GWT doesn't have PB support yet, we maintain parallel classes specifically for GWT and already perform a lot of switch on type and translation on the server. It's ugly but we have it working.
   I feel as though custom serialization might be able to offer a slightly cleaner approach for switching between GWT and PB types. Your thoughts?
