Class UnknownFieldSet

Used to keep track of fields which were seen when parsing a protocol message but whose field numbers or types are unrecognized. This most frequently occurs when new fields are added to a message type and then messages containing those fields are read by old software that was built before the new types were added.

Most users will never need to use this class directly.

MergeFieldFrom(UnknownFieldSet, CodedInputStream)

Create a new UnknownFieldSet if unknownFields is null. Parse a single field from input and merge it into unknownFields. If input is configured to discard unknown fields, unknownFields will be returned as-is and the field will be skipped.

Declaration

public static UnknownFieldSet MergeFieldFrom(UnknownFieldSet unknownFields, CodedInputStream input)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
UnknownFieldSet	unknownFields	The UnknownFieldSet which need to be merged
CodedInputStream	input	The coded input stream containing the field

Returns

Type	Description
UnknownFieldSet	The merged UnknownFieldSet

MergeFrom(UnknownFieldSet, UnknownFieldSet)

Created a new UnknownFieldSet to unknownFields if needed and merges the fields from other into the first set. If a field number exists in both sets, the values in other will be appended to the values in this set.

Declaration

public static UnknownFieldSet MergeFrom(UnknownFieldSet unknownFields, UnknownFieldSet other)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
UnknownFieldSet	unknownFields
UnknownFieldSet	other

Returns

Type	Description
UnknownFieldSet

WriteTo(CodedOutputStream)

Serializes the set and writes it to output.

Declaration

public void WriteTo(CodedOutputStream output)

Parameters
