This project provides IDE integration to Eclipse users when working on protobuf files.
This is a fork of an originally Google-initiated project (protobuf-dt) which has been largely dormant for years and is currently without an active maintainer, albeit the product itself has been working reliably for years without any changes. It was forked to fix incompatibilities with newer Eclipse versions and to implement new features, such as out-of-the-box support for google.protobuf well-known types or the capability to import protos from .jar files in the classpath.

Compatibility with Xtext 2.35.0
Submitted by sanath rayala on Fri, 10/25/2024 - 06:30
Hello! I’m trying to install the Protocol Buffer Editor plugin, but my current setup includes Xtext 2.35.0. The latest version of the Protocol Buffer Editor (2.5.4.202408231052) requires an older Xtext version (between 2.9.0 and 3.0.0). Could you guide me to a compatible version of the Protocol Buffer Editor that works with Xtext 2.35.0, or suggest any workarounds? Thank you!
Works great

Thank you for maintaining this project. Works pretty good. Using it in Spring Tool Suite 4 (Version: 4.22.1.RELEASE, Build Id: 202405011620). Only thing is, that imports work a bit weirdly and cannot be resolved simetimes ("google/type/interval.proto") or own dependencies to other specifications.

This now works fine as of the current version 2.5.4, imports can be done from dependencies that contain .proto files :)
