    Would it? According to the GPB (assuming you both mean Google Protocol Buffers) homepage there are official mappings for C++, Java and Python and while the Google::ProtocolBuffers hadn't been updated in a while, it's quite possible it still works just fine.

    Here's a link to third party libraries.
