protocmp: how to ignore field in one of?

[HartBlanc]

I have a message M with a Oneof field O, one of the values O can take Ox has a field F.

I want to ignore F in a comparison.

I'm unable to address the field without either getting a panic or a compilation error using either protocmp.IgnoreFields or protocmp.IgnoreOneofs.

How can I ignore F in a cmp.Equal comparison?

Could you please supply a runnable program to illustrate the issue? Thanks.
