how to avoid: Warning: Required field not set while parsing. This is an error.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

running the code sample gives:
Warning: Required field not set while parsing. This is an error. 
upon the 1st call with an empty buffer 

bob = pb_read_Person();

The field is later set. Ideally, the warning shouldn't be there during the 
initial empty construction of bob. Instead there should be a final check on the 
constructed object that checks all required fields are set (could be 
recursive). And then one can throw error instead of warning. 
That should work right?

I agree that this warning is useless when you're creating a new message. I also 
agree that an error should be thrown if a required field remains unset during 
encoding. The two attached m-files can be dropped into 
"protobuf-matlab/protobuflib/" to achieve the desired behavior.
