             Summary: Annotation based marshallers should unmarshall empty repeatable fields as empty collections instead of null
                 Key: IPROTO-64
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/IPROTO-64
             Project: Infinispan ProtoStream
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0.5.Final
            Reporter: Adrian Nistor


They are currently set to null but it would be more useful to set them to empty collections.

Protobuf does not have a representation for null or for empty/missing repeatable fields. Whether these are represented as null or empty collection in Java code is just a matter of convenience.
