Yes, that should work. Unless I'm misunderstanding something, you should
just be able to do what Henner suggested above to accomplish this.

Re: [protobuf] Is possible to use enum from external class in .proto files?

2017-04-07 Thread ronil . merchant 
Hi, on the same lines need help on an idea.

Is it possible to define my enums in one .proto file and use them across 
other .proto files.
In context of grpc protobuf3.

Any help is appreciated.
