60 // Sometimes you want to be able to manipulate protocol types that you don't
61 // know about at compile time.  It would be nice to be able to construct
62 // a Message object which implements the message type given by any arbitrary
63 // Descriptor.  DynamicMessage provides this.
64 //
65 // As it turns out, a DynamicMessage needs to construct extra
66 // information about its type in order to operate.  Most of this information
67 // can be shared between all DynamicMessages of the same type.  But, caching
68 // this information in some sort of global map would be a bad idea, since
69 // the cached information for a particular descriptor could outlive the
70 // descriptor itself.  To avoid this problem, DynamicMessageFactory
71 // encapsulates this "cache".  All DynamicMessages of the same type created
72 // from the same factory will share the same support data.  Any Descriptors
73 // used with a particular factory must outlive the factory.
