All Implemented Interfaces:

ChannelHandler

@ChannelHandler.Sharable
public class ProtobufVarint32LengthFieldPrepender
extends MessageToByteEncoder<ByteBuf>

An encoder that prepends the the Google Protocol Buffers Base 128 Varints integer length field. For example:

 BEFORE DECODE (300 bytes)       AFTER DECODE (302 bytes)
 +---------------+               +--------+---------------+
 | Protobuf Data |-------------->| Length | Protobuf Data |
 |  (300 bytes)  |               | 0xAC02 |  (300 bytes)  |
 +---------------+               +--------+---------------+
