How do you create an instance of message knowing message type?
I do know my message type, I just cannot figure out how to create a
Message without having an instance of service object.
The right way is to call
getRequestPrototype/getResponsePrototype on service instance,
which I'd like to avoid,
The way this is intended to work is that you should have a pointer to the
Service object and call its getRequestPrototype() method. I don't
understand why you would need to decode requests without having a Service
object for which they are destined.

On the high level I have a wrapper for RpcChannel implements
transport. Inside transport I need to parse response. To do that I
need and instance of service.
To create an instance of service (stub) I need to provide and instance
of channel to it. So, my service depends on channel and channel
Thanks Kenton,
I was using getRequestPrototype, but I need an actual instance of
Service to call that method that created additional extra dependency
in my code that why I started to look for alternatives. I know my
method name and currently I'm just parsing response (byte array) this
way (in
(But to answer your question: Compiled-in types are almost always faster
than DynamicMessage.)

It looks like there is no elegant way to solve my issue.
In short, I have a transport implementation to use with PB RPC
service.
Service definitions are built-in and I need to convert byte array to
Message inside my transport. I know what service transport handles and
I have method name.
