Nanopb previously didn't support these platforms. + +**Changes:** References to *uint8_t* were replaced with several alternatives, +one of them being a new *pb_byte_t* typedef. This in turn uses *uint_least8_t* +which means the smallest available type. + +**Required actions:** If your platform does not have a standards-compliant +*stdint.h*, it may lack the definition for *[u]int_least8_t*. This must be +added manually, example can be found in *extra/pb_syshdr.h*. + +**Error indications:** Compiler error: "unknown type name 'uint_least8_t'". + +Nanopb-0.3.2 (2015-01-24) +========================= + +Add support for OneOfs +---------------------- +**Rationale:** Previously nanopb did not support the *oneof* construct in +*.proto* files. Those fields were generated as regular *optional* fields. + +**Changes:** OneOfs are now generated as C unions. Callback fields are not +supported inside oneof and generator gives an error. + +**Required actions:** The generator option *no_unions* can be used to restore old +behaviour and to allow callbacks to be used. To use unions, one change is +needed: use *which_xxxx* field to detect which field is present, instead +of *has_xxxx*. Compare the value against *MyStruct_myfield_tag*. + +**Error indications:** Generator error: "Callback fields inside of oneof are +not supported".
