Class goog.proto2.Message

Abstract base class for all Protocol Buffer 2 messages. It will be subclassed in the code generated by the Protocol Compiler. Any other subclasses are prohibited.

Instance Method Summary
	`add(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field, <Any Type> value)` Adds the given value to the field specified by the given field descriptor. Note that the field must be repeated.
	`add$Value(number tag, <Any Type> value)` Adds the value to the repeating field indicated by the given tag. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the add{Field} methods.
	`array$Values(number tag) ⇒ !Array` Gets the values at the field indicated by the given tag. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the {field}Array methods.
	`arrayOf(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field) ⇒ !Array` Returns the array of values found for the given repeated field.
	`checkFieldType_(!goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field, <Any Type> value)` Ensures that the value being assigned to the given field is valid.
	`clear(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field)` Clears the field specified.
	`clear$Field(number tag)` Clears the field specified by tag. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the clear{Field} methods.
	`clone() ⇒ !goog.proto2.Message`
	`copyFrom(!goog.proto2.Message message)` Recursively copies the known fields from the given message to this message. Removes the fields which are not present in the source message.
	`count$Values(number tag) ⇒ number` Returns the number of values stored in the field by the given tag. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the {field}Count methods.
	`countOf(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field) ⇒ number` Returns the number of values stored in the given field.
	`equals(<Any Type> other) ⇒ boolean` Compares this message with another one ignoring the unknown fields.
	`forEachUnknown(function (number, *): ? callback, ?Object= opt_scope)` Iterates over all the unknown fields in the message.
	`get(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field, number= opt_index) ⇒ <Any Type>` Returns the value stored at the field specified by the given field descriptor.
	`get$Value(number tag, number= opt_index) ⇒ <Any Type>` Gets the value at the field indicated by the given tag. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the get{Field} methods.
	`get$ValueOrDefault(number tag, number= opt_index) ⇒ <Any Type>` Gets the value at the field indicated by the given tag or the default value if none. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the get{Field} methods.
	`getDescriptor() ⇒ ?goog.proto2.Descriptor` Returns the descriptor which describes the current message.
	`getFieldByTag_(number tag) ⇒ !goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor` Returns the field in this message by the given tag number. If no such field exists, throws an exception.
	`getOrDefault(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field, number= opt_index) ⇒ <Any Type>` Returns the value stored at the field specified by the given field descriptor or the default value if none exists.
	`has(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field) ⇒ boolean` Returns whether there is a value stored at the field specified by the given field descriptor.
	`has$Value(number tag) ⇒ boolean` Returns the whether or not the field indicated by the given tag has a value. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the has{Field} methods.
	`initDefaults(boolean simpleFieldsToo)` Fills in the protocol buffer with default values. Any fields that are already set will not be overridden.
	`initializeForLazyDeserializer(?goog.proto2.LazyDeserializer deserializer, <Any Type> data)` Initializes the message with a lazy deserializer and its associated data. This method should be called by internal methods ONLY.
	`lazyDeserialize_(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field)` If a lazy deserializer is instantiated, lazily deserializes the field if required.
	`set(?goog.proto2.FieldDescriptor field, <Any Type> value)` Stores the given value to the field specified by the given field descriptor. Note that the field must not be repeated.
	`set$Value(number tag, <Any Type> value)` Sets the value of the non-repeating field indicated by the given tag. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Basis of the set{Field} methods.
	`setUnknown(number tag, <Any Type> value)` Sets the value of an unknown field, by tag.

Static Method Summary
	`set$Metadata(?Function messageType, ?Object metadataObj)` Sets the metadata that represents the definition of this message. GENERATED CODE USE ONLY. Called when constructing message classes.
