Interface CMessageDescriptor

All Superinterfaces:

CAnnotatedDescriptor, PDescriptor

All Known Implementing Classes:

CExceptionDescriptor, CStructDescriptor, CUnionDescriptor

public interface CMessageDescriptor
extends CAnnotatedDescriptor, PDescriptor

See the struct descriptor of PStructDescriptor. It is avoided in this case in order to be able to have subclasses of PStructDescriptor and PUnionDescriptor to implement an interface that alreadt have the getFields() methods with the CField contained field implementation.
