Hello, I'm trying to read gob-encoded data into a variable of interface type. In simple cases, this works for me, but when I use a custom encoding via MarshalBinary() and UnmarshalBinary() methods, my code keeps crashing, with the error message
panic: interface conversion: interface is nil, not encoding.BinaryUnmarshaler Example: - The code at https://play.golang.org/p/y8nWNhObUwb, letting gob do the en-/decoding works. - The very similar code at https://play.golang.org/p/-zS7QjEJg9x, which uses MarshalBinary() and UnmarshalBinary() crashes with the panic shown above. What am I doing wrong? [I asked the same question at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57485698/, with no answers so far] Many thanks, Jochen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
