Class: Element

ProtoBuf. Element

new Element(type, resolvedType, isMapKey, syntax)

Constructs a new Element implementation that checks and converts values for a particular field type, as appropriate.

An Element represents a single value: either the value of a singular field, or a value contained in one entry of a repeated field or map field. This class does not implement these higher-level concepts; it only encapsulates the low-level typechecking and conversion.

Parameters:

type Object

resolvedType ProtoBuf.Reflect.T | null

Resolved type, if relevant (e.g. submessage field).

isMapKey boolean
