Sorry, I realize that wasn't a very clear statement... What I mean is, if there is an option which does not leave any "fingerprint" in either the serialized message or the FileDescriptorSet, so that you can't tell how the option was set by looking at either of these, then the option is controlling only code generation and is not affecting the service contract. So it should not be in the .proto file.
I think that applies to the package statement as well as optimize_for. Protocol Buffers does not put globally unique signatures into the messages or descriptors based on your package declaration. It only affects the code generation. - Alex --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
