Hello
I was trying to populate and deserialize following message to string:
message SampleSubMessage{
repeated string str = 1;
repeated fixed32 val = 2;
}
message SampleMessage {
repeated SampleSubMessage sub = 1;
}
I had already set the SetUseShortRepeatedPrimitives to true before
deserializing the message to string.
However in the output string only integer values were printed in "list
values" format.
sub {
str: ""
str: "4"
val: [34, 45]
}
sub {
str: "2"
str: "7"
val: [67]
}
sub {
str: "3"
}
On further investigation i found that follwing code explicitely excludes
strings and message fields for converting to string.
google\protobuf\text_format.cc:1449
void TextFormat::Printer::PrintField(const Message& message,
const Reflection* reflection,
const FieldDescriptor* field,
TextGenerator& generator) const {
if (use_short_repeated_primitives_ &&
field->is_repeated() &&
* field*
*->cpp_type() != FieldDescriptor::CPPTYPE_STRING && field->cpp_type()
!= FieldDescriptor::CPPTYPE_MESSAGE*) {
PrintShortRepeatedField(message, reflection, field, generator);
return;
}
Could someone please help me understand the reason for this exclusion.
Thank you
Himanshu Agarwal
