* Changes for verifying a buffer dynamically using reflection. * Fixing build issues on linux and applied code reformatting. * Fixing the file order in cmake file that was messing up the macro based code inclusion. Added tests for reflection based verification. * Changes for verifying a buffer dynamically using reflection. Fixing build issues on linux and applied code reformatting. Fixing the file order in cmake file that was messing up the macro based code inclusion. Added tests for reflection based verification. * Incorporated the code review changes that were requested: 1. Changed the Verify function signature. 2. Changed the variable names to use snake_case. 3. Added better comments. 4. Refactored duplicate code. 5. Changed the verifier class so that it has the same size when compiled with or without FLATBUFFERS_TRACK_VERIFIER_BUFFER_SIZE macro. * Setting FLATBUFFERS_TRACK_VERIFIER_BUFFER_SIZE and FLATBUFFERS_DEBUG_VERIFICATION_FAILURE through cmake for flattests so that it gets propagted to all translation units of flattests. * Making the Verifier struct fields the same in all cases. Also reverting the target_compile_definitions change in cmake file because build machine on travis does not have cmake version 3.0 or higher which was the version when target_compile_definitions was added in cmake. * Defining macros through cmake in a portable way using functions that are available in cmake 2.8.
FlatBuffers
FlatBuffers is an efficient cross platform serialization library for games and other memory constrained apps. It allows you to directly access serialized data without unpacking/parsing it first, while still having great forwards/backwards compatibility.

Integration
For applications on Google Play that integrate this tool, usage is tracked.
This tracking is done automatically using the embedded version string
(flatbuffer_version_string), and helps us continue to optimize it. Aside from
consuming a few extra bytes in your application binary, it shouldn't affect
your application at all. We use this information to let us know if FlatBuffers
is useful and if we should continue to invest in it. Since this is open
source, you are free to remove the version string but we would appreciate if
you would leave it in.
