I saw your work and believe it would do the following:\r\n\r\nStorage\r\n     1) use PBs bool SerializeToString(string* output) const; to produce a string\r\n     2) use your tools to store said string into a Postgres DB\r\n\r\nLoading\r\n     1) use your tools to store retrieve a string from a Postgres DB\r\n     2) use PBs bool bool ParseFromString(const string& data); to rebuild the model in memory\r\n\r\n     Is this correct? Might you have an example?\r\n\r\n    I also get the impression you might be able to access individual components of the PB while it remains inside the DB ( analogous to \"shredding\") .. is this a capability?\r\n\r\nRegards\r\nCarl\r\n"}}
