All I am trying to achieve is to modify a message on the fly with a set of fields that are supplied to the program at runtime.
simple case: // message declared as - const google::protobuf::Message& message auto x = reflection->GetDouble(message, field); // do some modification to x reflection->SetDouble(message, field, x); my main question is how in the world do I get from a const ref (needed for GetDouble() ) to a pointer (needed for SetDouble() )??? I know that if I knew the field name at compile time I would be able to use mutable_<name>, but since I don't know that until runtime there does not seem to be an easy way to do this. Or I am just missing something super simple. Thanks, -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
