## Property Documentation

compilerName : string

The name of the protoc binary.

Default: `"protoc"`

This property was introduced in Qbs 1.17.

compilerPath : string

The path to the protoc binary.

Use this property to override the auto-detected location.

Default: `auto-detected`

This property was introduced in Qbs 1.17.

frameworkPath : string

The path where `Protobuf.framework` is located. Set this property to override the default location.

Default: `auto-detected`

importPaths : pathList

The list of imports that are passed to the `protoc` tool via the `--proto_path` option. These imports should contain the proto files. They are used to determine the relative structure of the generated files.

Note: The paths are passed to `protoc` in the same order as specified in this property and `protoc` output may differ depending on that order.

Default: `[]`

includePath : string

The path where protobuf Objective-C headers are located. Set this property to override the default location.

Note: If frameworkPath is specified, this property has no effect.

Default: `auto-detected`

libraryPath : string
