Detailed Description

Abstract interface implemented by Protocol Message objects.

See also MessageLite, which defines most of the methods that typical users care about. Message adds to it methods that are not available in the "lite" runtime. The biggest added features are introspection and reflection – i.e., getting descriptors for the message type and accessing the field values dynamically.

Member Function Documentation

◆ equals()

boolean com.google.protobuf.Message.equals ( Object other )

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.

Parameters

other object to be compared for equality with this message

Returns: true
if the specified object is equal to this message

Implemented in com.google.protobuf.AbstractMessage.

◆ getParserForType()

Parser<? extends Message> com.google.protobuf.Message.getParserForType ( )

Gets the parser for a message of the same type as this message.

Implements com.google.protobuf.MessageLite.

Implemented in com.google.protobuf.DynamicMessage, com.google.protobuf.MapEntry< K, V >, and com.google.protobuf.GeneratedMessage.

◆ hashCode()

int com.google.protobuf.Message.hashCode ( )

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.
