Does bitproto support `union`? #43

Closed chenlijun99 closed 1 year ago

chenlijun99 commented 1 year ago

Hi. First, thanks for this very cool project! I have one question: does bitproto support union (or something like protobuf's oneof)? It would be useful for protocol frames where the deserialization of the remaining bytes depends on some kind of frame id in the header.

I tried to look into https://bitproto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/language.html, but unfortunately didn't find anything.

Hello, the union or oneof feature is not supported.

chenlijun99 commented 1 year ago

Hi. Thanks for the confirmation! If there is no plan no support this feature, then I guess this issue can be closed.

Hmm, No such plan so far.
