Previously, we supported map fields in the Ruby DSL. However, we never
connected the final link in the chain and generated `map` DSL commands
for map fields in `.proto` files. My apologies -- I had been testing
with the DSL directly so I missed this.
Also fixed a handlerdata-setup-infinite-loop when a map value field's
type is its containing message.
This adds the Map container and support for parsing and serializing maps
in the protobuf wire format (as defined by the C++ implementation, with
MapEntry submessages in a repeated field). JSON map
serialization/parsing are not yet supported as these will require some
changes to upb as well.
system. The Ruby module build now uses an amalgamated distribution of
upb, and successfully builds a Ruby gem called 'google-protobuf' with
module 'google/protobuf'.
This adds a Ruby extension in ruby/ that is based on the 'upb' library
(now included as a submodule), and adds support for Ruby code generation
to the protoc compiler.
