No, protobuf accessors never return null. For message fields, you get the
default instance of the message type.

This should be pretty straightforward, but I couldn't find it in any
of the documentation on default values.
A slight change from some example code in the google documentation:
message SearchResponse {
optional Result result = 1;
}
message Result {
required string url = 1;
optional string title = 2;
repeated string snippets = 3;
}
My question is, what is the default value for the Result in the above
code? Does it get set to null since (I presume) it will be compiled
into an object when the protocol buffer gets compiled into Java or C#?
Or do default values work differently for a nested message than for
base types?
