- A new PHP-specific upb amalgamation. It contains everything related to upb_msg, but leaves out all of the old handlers-related interfaces and encoders/decoders.
# Schema/Defs Changes
- Changed `upb_fielddef_msgsubdef()` and `upb_fielddef_enumsubdef()` to return `NULL` instead of assert-failing if the field is not a message or enum.
- Added `upb_msgdef_iswrapper()`, to test whether this is a wrapper well-known type.
# Decoder
- Decoder bugfix: when we parse a submessage inside a oneof, we need to clear out any previous data, so we don't misinterpret it as a pointer to an existing submessage.
# JSON Decoder
- Allowed well-known types at the top level to have their special processing.
- Fixed a bug that could occur when parsing nested empty lists/objects, eg `[[]]`.
- Made the "ignore unknown" option also be permissive about unknown enumerators by setting them to 0.
# JSON Encoder
- Allowed well-known types at the top level to have their special processing.
- Removed all spaces after `:` and `,` characters, to match the old encoder and pass goldenfile tests.
# Message / Reflection
- Changed `upb_msg_hasoneof()` -> `upb_msg_whichoneof()`. The new function returns the `upb_fielddef*` of whichever oneof is set.
- Implemented `upb_msg_clearfield()` and added/implemented `upb_msg_clear()`.
- Added `upb_msg_discardunknown()`. Part of me thinks this should go in a util library instead of core reflection since it is a recursive algorithm.
# Compiler
- Always emit descriptors as an array instead of as a string, to avoid exceeding maximum string lengths. If this becomes a speed issue later we can go back to two separate paths.
* Created amalgamation with upb_msg but no handlers.
* Bugfix for upb_array_resize().
* Renamed "lite" amalgamation to "core", to avoid confusion.
Traditionally "lite" has meant "without reflection", but here we
mean it as "without handlers-based code."
* Build fixes from CI tests.
* Removed some more C++-style comments.
* Fix for out-of-order statements.
* WIP, first version of encoder.
* More progress on text encoder.
* A lot of progress on the text printer.
* Added textencode header file.
* Text encoder now passes conformance tests.
These aren't very stringent though, and more testing is needed.
* Print text into static buffer. Passes all conformance tests.
* Fixed kokoro errors.
* Fix for indent depth when printing map fields.
* Removed reflection and other extraneous things from the core library.
* Added missing files and ran buildifier.
* New CMakeLists.txt.
* Made table its own cc_library() for internal usage.
upb_msg was trying to be general enough that it could either live in
an arena or be allocated with malloc()/free(). This was too much
complexity for too little benefit. We should commit to just saying
that upb_msg is arena-only.
I also ripped out the code to glue upb_msg to the existing
handlers-based encoder/decoder. upb_msg has its own, small, simple
encoder/decoder. I'm trying to whittle down upb_msg to a small
and simple core.
I updated the Lua extension for these changes. Lua needs some more
work to properly create arenas per message. For now I just created
a single global arena.
