Wrong version of protobuff_runtime.jar in J2ObjC 2.3 (cannot compile)

[sarsonj]

Hi,

it looks like that there is older version (3.3) of protobuff runtime, than protobuff compiler itself (3.5.1). When used I got compilation errors like:

symbol: method setUnknownFieldsProto3(UnknownFieldSet)
/Users/sarsonj/Documents/work/ios/ttmonitor-common/protobuf/genjava/pb/Pb.java:28721: error: cannot find symbol
if (!parseUnknownFieldProto3(
^

After using JAR from protobuff 3.5.1, it works.

Thanks,

Jindrich

Hi,

The last few releases of J2ObjC were built with protobuf 3.5.1. I'll look into updating to the latest protobuf version for the next release.

Thanks,
Antonio.

Right, but the problem is, that protobuff compiler is 3.5.1, but protobuff runtime is 3.3.0:

$ j2objc_protoc --version
libprotoc 3.5.1

Info from protobuff_runtime.jar:

Bundle-SymbolicName: com.google.protobuf
Bundle-Vendor: Google
Bundle-Version: 3.3.0
Created-By: Apache Maven Bundle Plugin
Export-Package: com.google.protobuf;version="3.3.0"

So that the generated java doesn't compile according provided runtime.

Both j2objc_protoc and protobuff_runtime.jar taken from official zip file downloaded from j2objc - version 2.3 (j2objc-2.3.zip).

Fixed in 2.3.1.
