More specifically this (in the spec) "For a value x of type T or *T where T is not a pointer or interface type, x.f denotes the field or method at the shallowest depth in T where there is such an f." Covers the above behaviour and (from the same section) " If there is not exactly one f with shallowest depth, the selector expression is illegal." is not the case here - so works.. Thanks for bringing this up - is actually quite an obscure point. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
