You need to use the protocol compiler (protoc) which I did not import due to requests to keep the library small as possible. For an example please see http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/components/downloads/generate_csd.sh. > * Are there any other moz.build hoops I need to jump through to use > protobufs from within toolkit/devtools? I had to include DEFINES['GOOGLE_PROTOBUF_NO_RTTI'] = True in toolkit/components/downloads/moz.build. That was a long time ago so things may have changed.
