I have been trying to construct/populate a sub-message/message using protobuf in java. To be more specific, I have the extension number for an extension along with the extension registry.
Is there a way to construct a message by populating the field with the given value? In C++, I know there is a way to do this by using reflection. By using reflection interface, you can get the field descriptor (FindKnownExtensionByNumber()) and then construct the Message (MutableMessage(message, field descriptor)). Is there a similar way to do it in Java? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
