Try doing this:
message foo {
message X { }
message bar {
message X { }
message abc {
*optional foo.X abc_x = 1;*
}
}
}
You can also prefix the type with a dot, e.g.
optional *.**foo.X* abc_x = 1;
That has the effect of fully qualifying the message, as you can enclose the
entire message foo above in another message foo, which also provides an X,
and have these fields in the innermost message:
optional *.**foo.X* x1 = 1; // outer foo
optional *.**foo.foo.X* x2 = 2; // inner foo
optional *foo.X* x3 = 3; // inner foo
