Class Empty

A generic empty message that you can re-use to avoid defining duplicated empty messages in your APIs. A typical example is to use it as the request or the response type of an API method. For instance:

service Foo { rpc Bar(google.protobuf.Empty) returns (google.protobuf.Empty); }

The JSON representation for Empty is empty JSON object {}.
