No. When you say "environment variables", do you mean OS env variables, or the variables visible to a goroutine? If you're talking about the variables visible to a goroutine, where the variable lives depends on how it is declared and allocated. If the variable is allocated at compile time (like a global var/struct initialized with a literal) it lives in data segment. If the variable is allocated dynamically using new(), or it is declared in a function and it escapes, it lives on the heap. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "golang-nuts" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to golang-nuts+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/golang-nuts/01cea3eb-8f87-4ee3-a306-6641697c8a48%40googlegroups.com. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
