This may be a completely stupid or trivial question; however... I currently use this on some old code I'm working on and trying to clean things up:
switch os := strings.ToLower(runtime.GOOS); os { case "windows": // do windows stuff here case "linux": // do linux stuff here default: // do default stuff here } I hate to import the entire strings package just to ensure that switch will work. Does anybody know if runtime.GOOS will always return a lowercase value so I don't have to import the strings package just for this single check? All I can find is that GOOS returns (sys <https://golang.org/pkg/runtime/internal/sys/>.GOOS <https://golang.org/pkg/runtime/internal/sys/#GOOS>)... I'd rather be safe than sorry. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
