Re: [protobuf] Compatibility error on adding sub message type in existing proto file

Hi, I believe this is coming from the Confluent compatibility checker. (I work for Confluent.) A forward compatibility check is just a backward compatibility check with the arguments reversed. Since removing a message is not backward compatible, adding a message is not forward compatible.

I don't think we maintain any code that returns that kind of error. Do you know where that error is coming from? Is it from some external protobuf compatibility checker? On Thu, Dec 1, 2022 at 4:21 AM Komal Kamble wrote: > > Hello Adam Cozzette, > We are getting Found incompatibility change
