// Constructs implementations of Message which can emulate types which are not

//
// Sometimes you want to be able to manipulate protocol types that you don't
// know about at compile time.  It would be nice to be able to construct
// a Message object which implements the message type given by any arbitrary
// Descriptor.  DynamicMessage provides this.
//
// As it turns out, a DynamicMessage needs to construct extra
// information about its type in order to operate.  Most of this information
// can be shared between all DynamicMessages of the same type.  But, caching
// this information in some sort of global map would be a bad idea, since
// the cached information for a particular descriptor could outlive the
// descriptor itself.  To avoid this problem, DynamicMessageFactory
// encapsulates this "cache".  All DynamicMessages of the same type created
// from the same factory will share the same support data.  Any Descriptors
// used with a particular factory must outlive the factory.

  //   this is almost never what you want to do.  Almost all users should use
  //   the zero-arg constructor.

  // of constructing a dynamic implementation of the message.  In theory there

  // Given a Descriptor, constructs the default (prototype) Message of that

  // Calling this method twice with the same Descriptor returns the same
  // object.  The returned object remains property of the factory and will
  // be destroyed when the factory is destroyed.  Also, any objects created
  // by calling the prototype's New() method share some data with the
  // prototype, so these must be destroyed before the DynamicMessageFactory
  // is destroyed.

  // The given descriptor must outlive the returned message, and hence must
  // outlive the DynamicMessageFactory.
