Method represents a method of an API interface.

New usages of this message as an alternative to MethodDescriptorProto are strongly discouraged. This message does not reliability preserve all information necessary to model the schema and preserve semantics. Instead make use of FileDescriptorSet which preserves the necessary information.

Method request_type_url.setter Set or clear the generated request_type_url field.
Method response_streaming.setter Set or clear the generated response_streaming field.
Method response_type_url.setter Set or clear the generated response_type_url field.
Method syntax.setter Set or clear the generated syntax field.
Property edition The source edition string, only valid when syntax is SYNTAX_EDITIONS.
Property name The simple name of this method.
Property options Any metadata attached to the method.
Property request_streaming If true, the request is streamed.
Property request_type_url A URL of the input message type.
Property response_streaming If true, the response is streamed.
Property response_type_url The URL of the output message type.
Property syntax The source syntax of this method.
