[go-nuts] Building a Package With Multiple Subdirectories?

Back in June I asked why Go requires all the files in a package to be in the same directory. I learned that this is an implementation-specific decision. I was also referred to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45899203/can-i-develop-a-go-package-in-multiple-source-directories which discusses

[go-nuts] How to read struct field names from an empty slice of structs

I have a two level general-purpose data structure: a struct containing one or more slices of structs. I want to be able to use reflection to populate this, but as a first step I want to extract the "table names" (i.e., the names of the fields of the outer struct), and the "field names" (the nam

Re: [go-nuts] Int64 to []byte and vice-versa

Use `encoding/binary`. Yes, you have to care about byte order. But that's inherent to the question. There is no canonical way in which an integer correspond to a slice of bytes, you actually have to say how to encode it. That also doesn't cause any problems - on the contrary, being explicit about t

[go-nuts] Int64 to []byte and vice-versa

Hi, I have an int64 value say 12 I want to convert that to []byte array. How do we do that. There were lot of ways on the internet. Nothing which golang specifies or has a built-package for direct conversions. Lot of them dealt with Endiean's, but that might cause issues to I believe. So, is
