Re: [protobuf] DescriptorPool: call to FindFileByName() required before call to FindMessageTypeByName()?
Thanks for the update Jason. I'll make sure to iterate over the directory
and call FindFileByName() on each .proto I plan to use

Re: [protobuf] DescriptorPool: call to FindFileByName() required before call to FindMessageTypeByName()?
This is a result of SourceTreeDescirptorDatabase not implementing
FindFileContainingSymbol() - it doesn't maintain an index of the types
available in the database within the database, just the list of files that
are available. This is a sufficient implementation for the proto compiler,
where one specifies the files to build and thus FindFileByName() is always
called.
I'm not aware of any DescriptorDatabase implementations that have all the
types within a source tree indexed - various Google-internal
implementations don't support this either, as there are so many .proto
files that it's typically not useful to load all of them, and we have
clients specify the leaf file explicitly.

[protobuf] DescriptorPool: call to FindFileByName() required before call to FindMessageTypeByName()?
Hi,
In the code below, I've found that the returned Descriptor* is NULL after I
call FindMessageTypeByName(), *unless* I first call FindFileByName() on the
.proto which contains the Message I am looking for.
Is this a bug? Is there another way to do this? I would really like to be
able to setup a SourceTreeDescriptorDatabase to a directory that contains
all of the .proto files I plan to use and not have to search for each file
individually.
Any advice is much appreciated.
thanks,
Dan
