Class DescriptorProtos.SourceCodeInfo (3.19.4)

Encapsulates information about the original source file from which a FileDescriptorProto was generated.

Protobuf type google.protobuf.SourceCodeInfo

Compares the specified object with this message for equality. Returns true if the given object is a message of the same type (as defined by getDescriptorForType()) and has identical values for all of its fields. Subclasses must implement this; inheriting Object.equals() is incorrect.

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.

A Location identifies a piece of source code in a .proto file which corresponds to a particular definition. This information is intended to be useful to IDEs, code indexers, documentation generators, and similar tools. For example, say we have a file like: message Foo { optional string foo = 1; } Let's look at just the field definition: optional string foo = 1; ^ ^^ ^^ ^ ^^^ a bc de f ghi We have the following locations: span path represents [a,i) [ 4, 0, 2, 0 ] The whole field definition. [a,b) [ 4, 0, 2, 0, 4 ] The label (optional). [c,d) [ 4, 0, 2, 0, 5 ] The type (string). [e,f) [ 4, 0, 2, 0, 1 ] The name (foo). [g,h) [ 4, 0, 2, 0, 3 ] The number (1). Notes:

• A location may refer to a repeated field itself (i.e. not to any particular index within it). This is used whenever a set of elements are logically enclosed in a single code segment. For example, an entire extend block (possibly containing multiple extension definitions) will have an outer location whose path refers to the "extensions" repeated field without an index.
• Multiple locations may have the same path. This happens when a single logical declaration is spread out across multiple places. The most obvious example is the "extend" block again -- there may be multiple extend blocks in the same scope, each of which will have the same path.
• A location's span is not always a subset of its parent's span. For example, the "extendee" of an extension declaration appears at the beginning of the "extend" block and is shared by all extensions within the block.
• Just because a location's span is a subset of some other location's span does not mean that it is a descendant. For example, a "group" defines both a type and a field in a single declaration. Thus, the locations corresponding to the type and field and their components will overlap.
• Code which tries to interpret locations should probably be designed to ignore those that it doesn't understand, as more types of locations could be recorded in the future.

repeated .google.protobuf.SourceCodeInfo.Location location = 1;

Get the number of bytes required to encode this message. The result is only computed on the first call and memoized after that.

If this message requires more than Integer.MAX_VALUE bytes to encode, the return value will be smaller than the actual number of bytes required and might be negative.

Get the UnknownFieldSet for this message.

Returns the hash code value for this message. The hash code of a message should mix the message's type (object identity of the descriptor) with its contents (known and unknown field values). Subclasses must implement this; inheriting Object.hashCode() is incorrect.

Get the FieldAccessorTable for this type. We can't have the message class pass this in to the constructor because of bootstrapping trouble with DescriptorProtos.

Returns true if all required fields in the message and all embedded messages are set, false otherwise.

TODO(xiaofeng): remove this together with GeneratedMessageV3.BuilderParent.

Creates a new instance of this message type. Overridden in the generated code.

Serializes the message and writes it to output. This does not flush or close the stream.
