This could potentially be added back in later, but its use is limited and it's a pain in terms of support in PCL environments.
One use that has been highlighted is passing objects between AppDomains; we'd recommend passing a byte array explicitly and reparsing on the other side.

It is expected that third parties will generate service/RPC code themselves - see gRPC as an example.

1) Project files for different configurations - we're going to look at all this again, ideally to just have a single PCL-compatible build
2) ProtoGen - the C++ generator is now the only one we care about
3) Proto files - these are mostly duplicates (or older versions) of the ones in the common directories

(Having regenerated descriptor.proto relative to src, the earlier commented-out code checking that dependencies match may now be okay to uncomment again. Will experiment in later CLs.)

This commit includes changes to the C#-specific protos, and rebuilt versions of the "stock" protos.
The stock protos have been locally updated to have a specific C# namespace, but this is expected to change soon, so hasn't been committed.
Four areas are currently not tested:
1) Serialization - we may restore this at some point, possibly optionally.
2) Services - currently nothing is generated for this; will need to see how it interacts with GRPC
3) Fields beginning with _{digit} - see https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/308
4) Fields with names which conflict with the declaring type in nasty ways - see https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/309

1) Remove CSharpOptions
2) A new version of DescriptorProtoFile (with manual changes from codegen - it would otherwise be Descriptor.cs)
3) Turn off CLS compliance (which we'll remove from the codebase entirely; I don't think it's actually relevant these days)
4) Add "public imports" to FileDescriptor, with code broadly copied from the Java codebase.
Lots more changes to commit before it will build and tests run, but one step at a time...

Add C# generator files to the VS project for libprotoc

Also ignore Windows native build output files.

C# protocol buffers (initial pull request)

Rewrite of C# protogen to C++ (initial version)

Pulling protobuf-csharp-port into csharp/ directory

This is necessary for testing on iOS.

Fix for issue 283: JSON handler cleanup typo causing segfault.

Includes repro test case from @wfarr.

Migrate Python tests to stdlib unittest, drop apputils dependency.

Use stdlib's 'unittest' instead.

We already run all tests with and without `--cpp_implementation`
