You both make good point to why that might have it's issues. Taken into account the time mentioned it makes more sense to keep it separate and have it's own release cycle. Thanks for your input. On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 1:46 PM Dave Cheney wrote: > > > On Tuesday, 7 November 2017 22:29:29 UTC+11,

Apart from the time it would take to make changes to a tool in the toolchain i could come up with a reason for that: If a new feature gets added to go that would affect the debugger it would be tackled away as part of the release as opposed to wait for the final release and start implementing the

That statement is pretty aspirational. I think it is likely that the go tool could grow the ability to understand repository tags, but beyond that I wouldn’t bet on one specific tool. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group. To unsubscr

For that tool, which is not the subject of this thread, the maintainers are willing to pay the price of inclusion in the toolchain. As I stated in my original reply,I would hope we don't have to pay the same price for the debugger. I don't understand why anyone thinks that inclusion in the toolch

https://github.com/golang/dep/wiki/Roadmap The goal with dep is to be absorbed into the go toolchain. That's the path we're on, but it's up to the Go community - you! - to help us see it through. On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 11:16 AM Florin Pățan wrote: > dep is not part of the toolchain. > > On Tue,

would it not make sense them to keep dep out of the std toolchain to adapt faster to changes? On Tuesday, November 7, 2017 at 9:31:01 AM UTC+2, Dave Cheney wrote: > > If you reported an issue today, Nov 6, you could be waiting nearly 9 > months to see a fix in the next released version of Go. >

If you reported an issue today, Nov 6, you could be waiting nearly 9 months to see a fix in the next released version of Go. A project living outside the standard library has little going against it other than you have to compile it yourself. On Tuesday, 7 November 2017 18:28:09 UTC+11, Sotirio

I hope not. Anything that ends up in the toolchain is slow to change and adapt to user needs. If I have a problem with delve today, I can post an issue, fix it and get the next version of delve az quick as a few hours. If it would be in the toolchain it could take up to six months to get it release

Yes i know that, but i wonder if it is time to fully integrate delve in the go toolchain and ship it with every release like dep, which exists in another repository, but will be fullly integrated into the toolchain and the releases in some future version. On Tuesday, November 7, 2017 at 1:38:27
