does typedef exist in protobuf ?

[V R]

Hi, 

I'd like to define a typedef as in C/C++, e.g:

typedef list<double> DoubleVector 

How can I declare that in a proto3 file ?  

I know I can use:

message ListOfDouble {

 repeated double value = 1;

}

But I'd like not to use that if possible in order to have a container of some type.

Thanks.

This is a protobuf question and not gRPC specific. Please ask in the protobuf mailing list.

FWIW, `repeated` sounds appropriate for your use case. You can have have a `repeated` field of scalar types or custom types.
