  Overrides
  
  
  getDefaultInstanceForType()
  
    public DescriptorProtos.FileDescriptorSet getDefaultInstanceForType()
   
  Get an instance of the type with no fields set. Because no fields are set, all getters for
 singular fields will return default values and repeated fields will appear empty. This may or
 may not be a singleton. This differs from the getDefaultInstance() method of generated
 message classes in that this method is an abstract method of the MessageLite interface
 whereas getDefaultInstance() is a static method of a specific class. They return the
 same thing.
 
  
  
  getDescriptorForType()
  
    public Descriptors.Descriptor getDescriptorForType()
   
  Get the message's type's descriptor. This differs from the getDescriptor() method of
 generated message classes in that this method is an abstract method of the Message
 interface whereas getDescriptor() is a static method of a specific class. They return
 the same thing.

 class pass this in to the constructor because of bootstrapping trouble
 with DescriptorProtos.

    public DescriptorProtos.FileDescriptorSet.Builder mergeFrom(CodedInputStream input, ExtensionRegistryLite extensionRegistry)
   
  Like Builder#mergeFrom(CodedInputStream), but also parses extensions. The extensions
 that you want to be able to parse must be registered in extensionRegistry. Extensions
 not in the registry will be treated as unknown fields.
 
  
  
  Overrides
  
  
  
  mergeFrom(DescriptorProtos.FileDescriptorSet other)
  
    public DescriptorProtos.FileDescriptorSet.Builder mergeFrom(DescriptorProtos.FileDescriptorSet other)
   
  
  
  
  mergeFrom(Message other)
  
    public DescriptorProtos.FileDescriptorSet.Builder mergeFrom(Message other)
   
  Merge other into the message being built. other must have the exact same type
 as this (i.e. getDescriptorForType() == other.getDescriptorForType()).
 
Merging occurs as follows. For each field:
- For singular primitive fields, if the field is set in 
other, then other's
value overwrites the value in this message.
 
- For singular message fields, if the field is set in 
other, it is merged into the
corresponding sub-message of this message using the same merging rules.
 
- For repeated fields, the elements in 
other are concatenated with the elements in
this message.
 
For oneof groups, if the other message has one of the fields set, the group of this message
is cleared and replaced by the field of the other message, so that the oneof constraint is
preserved.
This is equivalent to the Message::MergeFrom method in C++.
