Google Protocol Buffers (protobuf) in Python3 - trouble with ParseFromString (encoding?)

Question

I\'ve got Google Protocol buffers 80% working in Python3. My .proto file works, I\'m encoding data, life is almost good. The problem is that I can\'t ParseFromString the result

Answer 1

ParseFromString is a method -- it does not return anything, but rather fills in self with the parsed content. Use it like:

message = MyMessageType()
message.ParseFromString(data)
print message.some_field
