Hi Marc,
I had a similar question about the serialization of objects using protocol
buffers.
I prefer using a single .proto file for generation of C# and Java file, and
would like to know if my understanding of how to implement a generic list
of objects in the .proto file is right or not.
Here is my .proto file:
package test;
option optimize_for = SPEED;
message Dp
{
optional string com = 1;
optional string arga = 2;
optional string dbName = 3;
optional string fName = 4;
optional string dateTime = 5;
optional string inputdataassembly = 6;
optional string inputDataType = 7;
optional string identity = 8;
enum DataLocation
{
SERVER = 1;
CLIENT = 2;
ADMIN = 3;
}
optional DataLocation datalocation = 9;
optional Object o = 10;
// I want this to be of the type List<Object>
message Object
{
repeated Object objects = 1;
}
optional string ipaddress = 11;
optional int32 port = 12;
optional string authGuid = 13;
optional string moduleid = 14;
optional bool queued = 15;
}
Thank you.
Regards,
Amina K
