Thanks for the report. Could you stripe down the proto to a bare minimum example and also post the command line arguments you are using? I can take a look.
Can you look at #7121, I tried to recreate the issue you are seeing and it seems to be generating it correctly. Maybe there is some other tidbit that is different.
Thank you for your reply. I did a little more testing and it seems that the order of defining the enums and defining the messages using the enums plays a role. I attached two minimal examples.
As a command to convert the proto file to fbs I simply use the following command:
./flatc --proto osi_object_minimal.proto
Thanks, I'll take a look.
Hi @dbaileychess! Any progress on our issue here? Did you have a look? We would be very happy , if this could be fixed!
Thanks, I'll take a look.
Hey @dbaileychess do you need any more information on this or support? Is there already a plan to integrate a fix in the next release? Could you outline a timeframe for this? Thank you very much!
At an initial glance this bug seems to be the result of how we parse proto files. We can be reproduces this bug if the following criteria are met:
When we perform an enum look up we traverse up the namespace until we find a matching qualified name in the symbol table for defined enums. https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/blob/master/src/idl_parser.cpp#L141-L147
If our desired enum is defined after the field it won't exists in the symbols table so our look up function will travel up the namespace to find an enum with a similiar name.
To fix this issue, off the top of my head I think we can do a two pass on the proto file. On the initial pass we can populate our symbol tables and on the second pass we'll process the proto file like we currently do.
Here's another minimal example to reproduce this bug.

Seems that this is not fixed yet?
Not fixed yet. I'll take a look at this again.

This issue still needs to be fixed.

This is still no resolved but needed
We are trying out Flatbuffers instead of the currently used Protobuf in the ASAM Open Simulation Interface.
We are converting interface definitions from proto files to fbs using flatc. In the proto files we have nested messages with enums of the same name. See the following example from the osi_object.proto:
The namespaces of the enums are correctly set by flatc in the fbs files:
The usage of the enums however is wrong:
The namespaces of the enums "Type" are mixed up.
