protobuf-c编译错误

先贴 protobuf-c的源码地址GitHub - protobuf-c/protobuf-c: Protocol Buffers implementation in C

其他编译步骤参考官方说明，我的编译的出错信息如下：

protoc-c/c_message.cc:157:65: error: ‘const class google::protobuf::OneofDescriptor’ has no member named ‘file’
  157 |     vars["foneofname"] = FullNameToC(oneof->full_name(), oneof->file());
      |                                                                 ^~~~
protoc-c/c_message.cc:208:65: error: ‘const class google::protobuf::OneofDescriptor’ has no member named ‘file’
  208 |     vars["foneofname"] = FullNameToC(oneof->full_name(), oneof->file());
      |                                                                 ^~~~

      |                                                                     ^~~~
 

我的编译环境是

protobuf-c 1.4.0

        CC:                     gcc
        CFLAGS:                 -fPIC
        CXX:                    g++ -std=c++11
        CXXFLAGS:               -g -O2
        LDFLAGS:                
        LIBS:

        includedir:             ${prefix}/include
        pkgconfigdir:           ${libdir}/pkgconfig

        bigendian:              no
        protobuf version:       libprotoc 3.3.0
 

今天编译protobuf-c，出现以上错误，按照官方的安装，包括protobuf，但是还是出这个错误，以为是我配置的问题，没有找到原因。按照错误提示去源码中查找

此处的调用是调用到了protobuf源码中的descriptor.h（这个文件在哪请自行find）中的OneofDescriptor类，如下图源码中的片段

// Describes a oneof defined in a message type.
class LIBPROTOBUF_EXPORT OneofDescriptor {
 public:
  const string& name() const;       // Name of this oneof.
  const string& full_name() const;  // Fully-qualified name of the oneof.

  // Index of this oneof within the message's oneof array.
  int index() const;

  // The Descriptor for the message containing this oneof.
  const Descriptor* containing_type() const;

  // The number of (non-extension) fields which are members of this oneof.
  int field_count() const;
  // Get a member of this oneof, in the order in which they were declared in the
  // .proto file.  Does not include extensions.
  const FieldDescriptor* field(int index) const;

  const OneofOptions& options() const;

  // See Descriptor::CopyTo().
  void CopyTo(OneofDescriptorProto* proto) const;

  // See Descriptor::DebugString().
  string DebugString() const;

  // See Descriptor::DebugStringWithOptions().
  string DebugStringWithOptions(const DebugStringOptions& options) const;

提示的file()方法在这个OneofDescriptor 中没有，其他相关Descriptor类中有这个方法，返回去再看下protobuf-c源码中出错函数的定义。它需要的是一个

const FileDescriptor *file

这个参数，ok问题找到了，那就是返回一个FileDescriptor *就行了。再看OneofDescriptor 的定义。哦豁，没有，接着看。

发现containing_type()成员函数的返回值是Descriptor，去看下定义

class LIBPROTOBUF_EXPORT Descriptor {
 public:
  // The name of the message type, not including its scope.
  const string& name() const;

  // The fully-qualified name of the message type, scope delimited by
  // periods.  For example, message type "Foo" which is declared in package
  // "bar" has full name "bar.Foo".  If a type "Baz" is nested within
  // Foo, Baz's full_name is "bar.Foo.Baz".  To get only the part that
  // comes after the last '.', use name().
  const string& full_name() const;

  // Index of this descriptor within the file or containing type's message
  // type array.
  int index() const;

  // The .proto file in which this message type was defined.  Never NULL.
  const FileDescriptor* file() const;

他有file()函数的定义，且函数的返回值类型是FileDescriptor*，这不就对了么！

下面就是修改前后对比

左边是源码，右边是我修改后的。

oneof->file() 改成oneof->containing_type()->file()。

然后编译，就没问题了！
