Protobuf java files are not included during javac compilation

[MitchellJThomas]

Ok, so a partial solution is to include com.google.protobuf/protobuf-java in my project's dependencies e.g. [com.google.protobuf/protobuf-java "2.6.1"]

I (incorrectly) assumed Google Protobuf classes would "pulled in" by either this project (lien-protobuf) or by the org.flatland/protobuf project... I suppose the later would be more natural.

When I "go back" to using :plugins [lein-protobuf "0.4.1"] and :dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.7.0"][org.flatland/protobuf "0.8.1"]], I don't need to include the google protobuf and lien protobuf just works.

Thanks for the report & reminder. I included this information in documentation that appears on the repo main page. In the update, I also added a little table that tells which version of Protobuf is the default installation version for lein-protobuf.

It looks like Protobuf 3.0 is going to come out soon. After the final 3.0 release comes out, if you notice before me, feel free to give me a heads up and I can bump the relevant versions.

In the meantime, with the 0.5.0 release, you should be able to tell lein-protobuf to use a protoc executable from a custom location.
