<h3 id="path_filepath">The path/filepath package</h3>
<p>
In Go 1, the <a href="/pkg/path/filepath/#Walk"><code>Walk</code></a> function of the

has been changed to take a function value of type

The <code>WalkFunc</code> function will be called even for files or directories that could not be opened;
