*"I feel the effort is made to forbid converting []Age into []int instead now."*
I don't agree that allowing this conversion would be 'easier' than not allowing. Allowing it requires the additional step of splitting/extracting from the slice the element type and checking that (for assignability) I am fairly certain that currently that step isn't performed and the slice is treated as a type unto itself, not as some sort of "composite type" It is/would be an extra step to achieve what is suggested in the original example. I feel you are asking for extra recursion in the type analysis the compiler does. I haven't checked the compiler code for this but would bet that currently there is no step disallowing such an assignment. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
