To ensure all headers aren't dependent on other things being imported
before/after them, make a source that just imports each header and add
it to the unittesting target, that way we ensure it can be included on
its own with ordering issues.
Also do this testing with a few generated headers that aren't part of
the library to help ensure the different generated imports needed are
complete.
Moving the files to their original location, so that opensource changes
can be picked during the internal merge. Those files will be moved into
the correct location after merging with internal code.
Note: do NOT merge this into master without the other internal
down-integration commit.
protobuf/java will become a parent pom that will contain two modules:
core - contains all of the code for the protobuf-java artifact
util - contains all of the code for the protobuf-java-util artifact
Also cleaned up various Maven warnings.
General
* License changed from Apache 2.0 to New BSD.
* It is now possible to define custom "options", which are basically
annotations which may be placed on definitions in a .proto file.
For example, you might define a field option called "foo" like so:
import "google/protobuf/descriptor.proto"
extend google.protobuf.FieldOptions {
optional string foo = 12345;
}
Then you annotate a field using the "foo" option:
message MyMessage {
optional int32 some_field = 1 [(foo) = "bar"]
}
The value of this option is then visible via the message's
Descriptor:
const FieldDescriptor* field =
MyMessage::descriptor()->FindFieldByName("some_field");
assert(field->options().GetExtension(foo) == "bar");
This feature has been implemented and tested in C++ and Java.
Other languages may or may not need to do extra work to support
custom options, depending on how they construct descriptors.
C++
* Fixed some GCC warnings that only occur when using -pedantic.
* Improved static initialization code, making ordering more
predictable among other things.
* TextFormat will no longer accept messages which contain multiple
instances of a singular field. Previously, the latter instance
would overwrite the former.
* Now works on systems that don't have hash_map.
Python
* Strings now use the "unicode" type rather than the "str" type.
String fields may still be assigned ASCII "str" values; they will
automatically be converted.
* Adding a property to an object representing a repeated field now
raises an exception. For example:
# No longer works (and never should have).
message.some_repeated_field.foo = 1
