Extension handlers only handle extensions with "object" type. about gnostic HOT 5 CLOSED

Here is a good list of extension sets that would provide some good validation for gnostic extensions.

Issue acknowledged, will take a look. Currently swamped with other tasks.

Resolving this is going to be tricky because google.protobuf.Any type can only represent Message types. Since we are using google.protobuf.Any to represent extensions, we will need to use wrapper types to convert primitives into google.protobuf.Any when reading an extension of type int/string etc. This can cause usability issue in the extension handers where author of the extension hander will have to unwrap the wrappertype by doing something like in java :

StringValue s = .. read string value from Any Type..
string extensionString = s.value.

need to dig more on to understand if this is the only route we have.

If you filter this list by object you can find more examples.

@guptasu Something like a wrapper type SGTM. We should mock up a few samples to be sure.

@MikeRalphson Thanks, that's fantastic!
