type internally. (#7351)
* Add `ParseFrom(ReadOnlySequence<byte>)` method to enable GC friendly
parsing with reduced allocations and buffer copies. (#7351)
+ * Add support for serialization directly to a `IBufferWriter<byte>` or
+ to a `Span<byte>` to enable GC friendly serialization.
+ The new API is available as extension methods on the `IMessage` type. (#7576)
* Add `GOOGLE_PROTOBUF_REFSTRUCT_COMPATIBILITY_MODE` define to make
generated code compatible with old C# compilers (pre-roslyn compilers
from .NET framework and old versions of mono) that do not support
- ref structs. (#7490)
+ ref structs. Users that are still on a legacy stack that does
+ not support C# 7.2 compiler might need to use the new define
+ in their projects to be able to build the newly generated code. (#7490)
+ * Due to the major overhaul of parsing and serialization internals (#7351 and #7576),
+ it is recommended to regenerate your generated code to achieve the best
+ performance (the legacy generated code will still work, but might incur
+ a slight performance penalty).
