I was wondering if someone can clear up a question about the creation of GeneratedMessage objects in java.
If I create an instance of my object, then call 'parseFrom' on it, and pass in a ByteString. I assume this is populating the objects members. So If I call parseFrom again, passing in a different ByteString, will this just overwrite the existing fields? After this call, is it safe to set the ByteString to null, so that it can be GC'd at the next available time? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
