tensorflow Protobuf编译问题

Question

I want to compile protobuf libraries for google object detection API. I followed the official tutorial and typed protoc object_detection/protos/*.proto --python_out=. . Then what I got is "object_detection/protos/*.proto: Invalid argument". Can anyone tell me what should I do? Thanks!

Answer 1

If your operating system is windows, then *. may not work. A good way to solve this problem is to use bash. Download git for windows , don't forget to select git bash when you install it. From tensorflow/models/research/, right click, select git bash, then paste the command, it works well on my laptop.

Answer 2

Try

protoc --python_out=. object_detection/protos/*.proto

Usage:

protoc [OPTION] PROTO_FILES

Answer 3

I know this is a late answer but after some 20 minutes trying out different things, i decided to try it on another terminal and i tried it on git bash.

You need to be in the correct directory so just cd into /models-master/research and make a folder named 1prts using mkdir once you are inside the research directory.

Since the last release, the repos has changed so this is the command you need to run:

protoc object_detection/protos/*.proto --python_out=./1prts
