Hi,
I've found posts on dealing with .proto files in different directories,
using packages, proto_path and canonical names, but I still can't figure
out how to compile a basic protobuf file layout with a.proto and
sub/b.proto that includes a.proto.
Perhaps the sticking point is I want to use a "*import ../<file.proto>*"
format import statement so the Eclipse protobuf editor can resolve
<file.proto>. There is no proto_path setting in Eclipse so I need to use
relative file names.
File ./a.proto:
message A {
required int32 a = 1;
}
File sub/b.proto:
import "../a.proto";
message B {
required int32 b = 1;
required A a = 2;
}
I have not found an invocation or protoc (2.5) that can compile this. For
example:
In directory ./:
$ protoc sub/b.proto --java_out=/tmp
../a.proto: File not found.
sub/b.proto: Import "../a.proto" was not found or had errors.
sub/b.proto:4:18: "A" is not defined.
$ protoc --proto_path=. sub/b.proto --java_out=/tmp
../a.proto: File not found.
sub/b.proto: Import "../a.proto" was not found or had errors.
sub/b.proto:4:18: "A" is not defined.
In directory ./sub:
$ protoc b.proto --java_out=/tmp
../a.proto: File not found.
b.proto: Import "../a.proto" was not found or had errors.
b.proto:4:18: "A" is not defined.
$ protoc --proto_path=. --proto_path=../ b.proto --java_out=/tmp
../a.proto: File not found.
b.proto: Import "../a.proto" was not found or had errors.
b.proto:4:18: "A" is not defined.
Any tips are greatly appreciated!
Steve
