I'm having a hard time figuring out how to access a nested message that's 
defined *within *a message (inline definition). However, I can easily 
access a nested message that's defined *outside* of the message.

What I mean is:

*message outer*
*{*
*    global foo = 1;*
*    message inner*
*    {*
*        int64 j = 2;*
*    }*
*}*

*message global*
*{*
*    int64 k = 3;*
*}*

Accessing the globally-defined message works fine:

*std::cout << "k is " << request.foo().k() << "\n";*

But I cannot access the internally-defined message via:

*std::cout << "j is " << request.inner().j() << "\n";*

I get a compiler message of 

*error: invalid use of 'helloworld::HelloRequest::inner'*

I've even tried:

*std::cout << "j is " << request.j() << "\n"*

but of course there's no member "j" in "request".

I'm sure it's something silly that I'm doing :-) [It would be most useful 
to put this answer in 
https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/cpp-generated 
near the section with the text "A message can be declared inside another 
message. For example: message Foo { message Bar { } } " :-)

Thanks in advance!
