@SheliakLyr your finding is correct and the specification incorrectly claims padding is in Least-Significant Bits, but the implementation pads MSB instead. I will need to update specification to correct this...

Ok I updated: https://github.com/FasterXML/smile-format-specification/blob/master/smile-specification.md with what should be more correct description. I am not entirely happy with the description so any PRs there would be appreciated. Still, the behavior of...

As of 2.x, neither is possible, although you can replace `JsonFactory` for `ObjectReader` and `ObjectWriter` using `with(JsonFactory)` method. This should be closest to what is possible. In theory it would...

@StephenOTT For this particular setting I would probably try to keep references to `ObjectWriter` and `ObjectReader` (assuming you need both read and write; if not, just applicable one), although overhead...

While I can see added power from lambda-style approach (can't be real lambda since Jackson 2.x is still Pre-java8 minimum, but functional interface would do fine), it also sounds like...

Yes, this is correct. Due to time it took to add implementation for json backend, I had to postpone implementation for CBOR and Smile which would be the next likely...

Ok. Mostly asking since I hope to gauge interest in yet-to-add/complete features, and if there's demand for `InputData` implementation I would consider it for implementation. There are so many things...

Perhaps a misunderstanding here is that protoc schema is strictly used for decoding (and encoding), but it has literally no effect on what happens above token stream: databind is free...
