[go-nuts] Go Boring release schedule
Hey there, Go 1.17 was released last week (Aug 16th), but it appears the corresponding build of Go + Boring Crypto is not available yet (checking the Google Cloud Storage bucket as well as Docker Hub). Does anyone know if these releases typically track the main upstream Go closely, or if releases lag some period of time? I understand some folks might be on summer vacation, so wanted to check if there's an expected publication date for this so I can plan accordingly. :) Thanks, Jonathan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.

How could I do that? I recently did something like this: 1. Fork the repository 2. Clone it, fix it up 3. Push your changes to your fork 4. Then, in your project: go mod edit -replace github.com/upstream_org/repo=github.com/your_user/repo@branch The thing I don’t like about this approach is having to push to the remote each time I want to iterate. However, after writing this all out, I recently did a quick experiment to see if I could just operate on a local copy and it seems to have worked! 1. Clone the repository 2. Fix it up locally 3. Then, in your project: go mod edit -replace GitHub.com/upstream_org/repo=/path/to/your/clone/of/the/patched-project Connor -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.

Re: [go-nuts] write func with optional bool return value
No, it is not possible. The *only* functions that can return either one or two returns are builtins. That's because the number of returns is part of the type of a function, so it is constant for every function. Builtin "functions", OTOH, are not really functions, in terms of the language. They are intrinsics of the compiler, which parses the call-expression and translates them into machine code or calls into the runtime (which is also how they can be generic, without Go having generics). You can see that by trying to assign a builtin function to a variable: https://play.golang.org/p/0EiSIIqSLhp This would be possible for every function - but `append` has no type, so you can't put it in a variable (which would need to have the same type as `append`). What you ask is just categorically impossible in Go. On Fri, Aug 27, 2021 at 5:06 PM Vasiliy Tolstov wrote: > I know, so my question is - does it possible to write such functions > like builtin?

I know, so my question is - does it possible to write such functions like builtin?

Re: [go-nuts] write func with optional bool return value
Hi, Optional returns and parameters don't exist in go, what you are referring to is built-in behavior specific to some features. A good way to approach what you want is by assigning it to the anonymous '_' var when you don't want the returned bool.

[go-nuts] fonts, bitmap and the (old TeX) PK file format
hi there, I am working on providing a pure-Go TeX engine. to achieve such a thing, I'd need to be able to decode and use the so-called "PacKed font file" format (PK fonts). (I know it's a very old & deprecated file format, but I figured it would be easier on me to start "old tech" first) I think I managed to properly decode it, and managed to extract the bitmap data of each glyph: - https://play.golang.org/p/dA8cev_x4TQ the program above displays the bitmap data extracted for glyph 'a': $> go run ./main.go ...... ** ..*...**.. .****. ***... ...*****.. ......**.. ...**. ...**. ....** **..** ....** ** ** ** ** .* .* ..*.** ***.** ..***...** ** ...***..** ....** ....** .***** .*****..** ***.**..** ***.**..** ***.**..** ******..** ******..** ....** .***.***.*..** .**...***. ......***. ***....*.. ..*****... .* now, the question is: how should I packaged that data so that I can interoperate best with, say, golang.org/x/image/font ? would I just use a golang.org/x/image/font/basicfont.Face ? cheers, -s -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.

[go-nuts] 'go vet' not finding methods exported in _test.go files?
Hi,
We've recently moved from using 'go tool vet' to 'go vet' (we need to
stick to the Go versions shipped with Debian) and have found that it is
not finding public methods that we export for test only by putting them
in _test.go files (error is 'undeclared name'). Disable go vet, and you
can build and run the test code fine. Problematic code is something
like this:
export_for_test.go:
package foo
func ExportedForTest() {
// Do something
}
---
foo_test.go
package foo_test
import (
"foo"
"testing"
)
func TestFoo(t *testing.T) {
foo.ExportedForTest()
}
---
We are using Go 1.15 in Debian 10.
This would appear to be a bug in 'go vet' given the actual build and
running of test code works fine. Is there any way to work around this,
and has it been fixed in more recent releases (not that this would
solve our problem as we are stuck with the buster-backport version of
Go for now, and Debian 11 is also using Go 1.15).
Thanks,
William
