Hi Count, These resources will be helpful in understanding what this compiler does.
https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/?hl=en http://blog.codeclimate.com/blog/2014/06/05/choose-protocol-buffers/ http://www.stringtemplate.org/ https://theantlrguy.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ST/Five+minute+Introduction the compiler is the pst folder in the repository. There is a comment in one of the core files which tries to outline the project and I've linked it below. This will be a fairly intensive learning experience, after reading the resources above I would suggest reading the source, starting with Pst.java and moving to the other root files in the PST sub folder. https://github.com/apache/incubator-wave/blob/master/pst/src/main/java/org/apache/wave/pst/Pst.java After that this will link you to where in the build we use this compiler to generate source files for wave. https://github.com/apache/incubator-wave/blob/master/wave/build.gradle#L222 As always if your confused, just ask. Also i believe yuri has also written some of the protobuffs so he may be able to extend on this.
