Re: [go-nuts] types lookup for error interface type
I think I must have asked this really badly. I don't want a reflect.Type of an error, I want a types.Type representation of error for performing static analysis. The playground that I imagine is necessary is something like this. https://play.golang.org/p/e-FU0_4J9jK This seem massively over complicated, so I'm wondering if there is an easier way.

Re: [go-nuts] types lookup for error interface type
Error is an interface, so its type depends on the implementation satisfying that interface. You can't just create an "error", since they don't exist, all that exists are implementation satisfying the error interface. That's what you're doing with NewSignature. Could you just create an implementation of the error interface and instantiate one of those?

[go-nuts] types lookup for error interface type
In the go/types package there is an easy way to obtain a types.Type for basic builtin types. This doesn't exist for the error type. Is there an easier way to get a types.Type representing error than by using NewInterfaceType, NewFunc and NewSignature functions (I am assuming that the nil *types.Package is what should be used for the call to NewFunc). thanks Dan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
