MessageLite interface support #27

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

This may not be possible, but could the MessageLite interface be supported?

XmlFormat.print(Message, Appendable)
+ XmlFormat.print(MessageLite, Appendable)

The protobuf documentation states that the Lite version doesn't have some 
features, one of them is reflections. If I understand correctly, 
protobuf-java-format utilizes reflections to do the conversion. So I don't 
think it is possible to implement the feature you're asking for.

I'm not the developer though.
