编译protobuf并尝试在其他软件包中使用时，未定义结构的MarshalToSizedBuffer

Question

I'm using gogo/protobuf to generate protobufs for gRPC calls but recently they started failing due a marshalling method not being correctly generated. The error looks like this:

service/v1/service.pb.go:1347:27: m.ListMeta.MarshalToSizedBuffer undefined (type *"k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/apis/meta/v1".ListMeta has no field or method MarshalToSizedBuffer)

I've tried reinstalling go and goenv, using a different gvm, and reverting changes to the proto files. The issue seems to resolve on our last stable branch of our proto files but if I make any changes the issue recurs. This is across two repos, one (proto files repo) using golang 1.11.1 and the other using golang 1.12.5.

I expected all methods that the protobufs needed to be generated in using the package.

Answer 1

We resolved this issue by fixing the dependencies to a prior working version and upping our different golang repo's to be in the same major version.
