Hi
I am using the protocol buffer text format. I need information about the
line and column number of a message that was already parsed. For example, I
have a protocol buffer message definition in the .proto file:
<code>
package ExamplePackage;
message ExampleMessage
{
required string first = 1;
required string second = 2;
}
</code>
and a message of type ExampleMessage containing data:
<code>
first: "FirstData"
second: "SecondData"
</code>
The data is stored in a protocol buffer text format file, so the text
format parser can get information about the line/column of the data
("first" -> (line = 1/ column = 1) and "second" -> (line = 2/ column = 1)
during parsing.
Now I am wondering if I can access the information on line/column after
parsing. Something like (C++):
<code>
ExamplePackage::ExampleMessage MyMessage;
google::protobuf::TextFormat::ParseFromString(fileStream, &MyMessage);
lineOfFirst = MyMessage.first().*getLine*();
lineOfSecond = MyMessage.second().*getLine*();
</code>
->lineOfFirst should be 1 now and lineOfSecond should be 2.
As the methods "getLine"/"getColumn" do not exist, I am wondering if there
any possibility to get line/column after parsing a text format file?
Thanks for your help in advance.
