The NullValue enum is typically used as part of the Value well-known type, but can be used elsewhere. In previous code, a NullValue field (other than in Value) would result in a JSON value of the string "NULL_VALUE"; it should instead be the null literal.
When parsing, we still accept "NULL_VALUE" as a valid value for NullValue - this new code being unable to parse old data, and comes for free anyway.
This is primarily for access to comments, which would be expected to be available in a protoc plugin.
The implementation has two fiddly aspects:
- We use a Lazy<T> to avoid building the map before cross-linking. An alternative would be to crosslink at the end of the constructor, and remove the calls to CrossLink elsewhere. This would be generally better IMO, but deviate from the Java code.
- The casts to IReadOnlyList<DescriptorBase> are unfortunate. They'll always work, because these lists are always ReadOnlyCollection<T> for a descriptor type... but we can't use IList<DescriptorBase> as that's not covariant, and it's annoyingly fiddly to change the field to be of type ReadOnlyCollection<T>.
unittest_proto3 had been changed in a very backward-incompatible
way which was never going to work with C# as it imports proto2 messages.
This is now a copy of the old file, but with a package name change for
compatibility with the remaining files in src/google/protobuf.
The other moves are for files that are only used by C#.
If messages A and B have the same oneof case, which is a message
type, and we merge B into A, those sub-messages should be merged.
Fixes#3200.
Note that I haven't regenerated all the code, as some of the protos
have been changed, breaking generation.
This consists of:
- Changing the codegen for the fixed set of options protos, to parse unknown fields instead of skipping them
- Add a new CustomOptions type in the C# support library
- Expose CustomOptions properties from the immutable proto wrappers in the support library
Only single-value options are currently supported, and fetching options values requires getting the type right
and knowing the field number. Both of these can be addressed at a later time.
Fixes#2143, at least as a first pass.
- Remove some old proto2-based C#-only messages
- Remove the "build" directory which only contained out-of-date files
- Remove the csharp_namespace option from proto2 messages
- Change "Google.ProtocolBuffers" to "Google.Protobuf" in other messages
This is the start of establishing a C# namespace of "Google.ProtocolBuffers.TestProtos.Proto3" for proto3-syntax protos.
We could optionally split the directory structure as well into Proto2 and Proto3 for clarity.
1) Project files for different configurations - we're going to look at all this again, ideally to just have a single PCL-compatible build
2) ProtoGen - the C++ generator is now the only one we care about
3) Proto files - these are mostly duplicates (or older versions) of the ones in the common directories
This commit includes changes to the C#-specific protos, and rebuilt versions of the "stock" protos.
The stock protos have been locally updated to have a specific C# namespace, but this is expected to change soon, so hasn't been committed.
Four areas are currently not tested:
1) Serialization - we may restore this at some point, possibly optionally.
2) Services - currently nothing is generated for this; will need to see how it interacts with GRPC
3) Fields beginning with _{digit} - see https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/308
4) Fields with names which conflict with the declaring type in nasty ways - see https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/309
