I have this weird problem when generating python files from .proto files using protoc. I am running protoc on addressbook.proto and in the addressbook_pb2.py I have this string
DESCRIPTOR = descriptor.FileDescriptor( name='addressbook.proto', package='tutorial', serialized_pb='\n\x11\x61\x64\x64ressbook.proto\x12\x08tutorial\"\xda \x01\n\x06Person\x12\x0c\n\x04name\x18\x01 \x02(\t\x12\n\n\x02id \x18\x02 \x02(\x05\x12\r\n\x05\x65mail\x18\x03 \x03(\t\x12+\n\x05phone \x18\x04 \x03(\x0b\x32\x1c.tutorial.Person.PhoneNumber\x1aM\n \x0bPhoneNumber\x12\x0e\.........' before the _PERSON_PHONETYPE = descriptor.EnumDescriptor definitions Due to this I am unable to use any of the generated python classes in other scripts. I installed protobuf-2.2.0 on same machine and it does not output that string so I am able to use the genereated files without any issues. Version of python being used is 2.6.4. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
