Method Detail

replaceMessageFields

public boolean replaceMessageFields()

Whether to replace message fields (i.e., discard existing content in destination message fields) when merging. Default behavior is to merge the source message field into the destination message field.

replaceRepeatedFields

public boolean replaceRepeatedFields()

Whether to replace repeated fields (i.e., discard existing content in destination repeated fields) when merging. Default behavior is to append elements from source repeated field to the destination repeated field.

replacePrimitiveFields

public boolean replacePrimitiveFields()

Whether to replace primitive (non-repeated and non-message) fields in destination message fields with the source primitive fields (i.e., if the field is set in the source, the value is copied to the destination; if the field is unset in the source, the field is cleared from the destination) when merging.

Default behavior is to always set the value of the source primitive field to the destination primitive field, and if the source field is unset, the default value of the source field is copied to the destination.
