public interface MessageLiteOrBuilderBase interface for methods common to MessageLite and MessageLite.Builder to provide type equivalency.
Methods
getDefaultInstanceForType()
public abstract MessageLite getDefaultInstanceForType()Get an instance of the type with no fields set. Because no fields are set, all getters for
singular fields will return default values and repeated fields will appear empty. This may or
may not be a singleton. This differs from the getDefaultInstance() method of generated
message classes in that this method is an abstract method of the MessageLite interface
whereas getDefaultInstance() is a static method of a specific class. They return the
same thing.
