// Package prototype provides builders to construct protobuf types that
// implement the interfaces defined in the protoreflect package.
//
// Protobuf types can either be constructed as standalone types
// (e.g., StandaloneMessage), or together as a batch of types in a single
// proto file (e.g., File). When creating standalone types, additional
// information must be provided such as the full type name and the proto syntax.
// When creating an entire file, the syntax and full name is derived from
// the parent type.
//
// Most types contain options, defined as messages in descriptor.proto.
// To avoid cyclic dependencies, the prototype package treats these options
// as opaque protoreflect.ProtoMessage values. In some cases where the option
// contains semantically important information (e.g.,
// google.protobuf.MessageOptions.map_entry), this information must be provided
// as a field of the corresponding type (e.g., prototype.Message.MapEntry).

import "google.golang.org/protobuf/reflect/protoreflect"

// Every struct has a "meta" struct embedded within it as a pointer.
// The meta type provides additional data structures for efficient lookup on
// certain methods (e.g., ByName) or derived information that can be
// derived from the parent (e.g., FullName). The meta type is lazily allocated
// and initialized. This architectural approach keeps the literal representation
// smaller, which then keeps the generated code size smaller.

// TODO: Instead of a top-down construction approach where internal references
// to message types use placeholder types, we could add a Reference method
// on Message and Enum that creates a MessageDescriptor or EnumDescriptor
// reference that only becomes valid after NewFile.
// However, that API approach is more error prone, as it causes more memory
// aliasing and provides more opportunity for misuse.
// Also, it requires that NewFile at least eagerly initialize all
// messages and enums list types. We can always add that API in the future.

// automatically resolve the placeholder to point to a concrete descriptor.
// Alternatively, a reference descriptor obtained via Enum.Reference or
// Message.Reference can be used instead. The placeholder approach makes it
// possible to declare the file descriptor as a single File literal and
// is generally easier to use. The reference approach is more performant,
