Hello,
I am a long time user of go, but I always had the impression that below
code would not work as string and Status are different type.
I thought I need to explicitly convert as ```exec(Status("abc"))``` it to
work.
I think, this part of the spec may be the reason
https://golang.org/ref/spec#Assignability
- x is an untyped constant <https://golang.org/ref/spec#Constants>
representable <https://golang.org/ref/spec#Representability> by a value
of type T.
Is there a way I can prevent this behavior.
I am using Status like an enum, and only predefined status values should be
allowed.
https://play.golang.org/p/4zsb7KtPBC6
package main
import (
"fmt"
)
type Status string
func main() {
exec("abc")
}
func exec(s Status) {
fmt.Printf("Hello, %s", s)
}
