New issue 304 by taoha...@gmail.com: How to write a parent type in a
protobuf message.
http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/issues/detail?id=304
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.All the message in the .proto file is concrete. However, I really want to
define a parent data type which all the child type extends.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I want a versatile message. So...
message NetMessage {
requried int32 id = 1;
requried string sessionID = 2;
required Parent data = 3;
}
message Parent {
}
message Child1 extends Parent {
optional int32 id = 1;
optional string name = 2;
}
message Child2 extends Parent {
optional int32 id = 1;
optional string filename = 2;
}
May be a alternate solution could solve this problem but...How to deal with
it.
Thank you in advance!
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
java-2.4.1 windows7
