Fixes #1072 <- Full explanation of the feature request in this issue.
TL;DR for the above issue - To enable usage of custom options in descriptors being decoded with
fromDescriptor
you need to be able to override thegoogle.protobuf
namespace used to decode aFileDescriptorSet
with one that has the extensions of theMessageOptions
defined. You also need to have the resulting descriptor use camelCased field names as that's what thefromDescriptor
code uses (they come from the JSON field names indescriptor.json
).I understand this is an experimental feature at the moment and there isn't much test coverage for this as far as I can tell, but I'm happy to add tests for this if someone can describe how they should work.
