The Go programming language
d0d251f858
They are broken and hard to make work. They have never worked: if you import "/tmp/x" from "/home/rsc/p.c" then the compiler rewrites this into import "/home/rsc/tmp/x", which is clearly wrong. Also we just disallowed the : character in import paths, so import "c:/foo" is already not allowed. Finally, in order to support absolute paths well in a build tool we'd have to provide a mechanism to instruct the compiler to resolve absolute imports by looking in some other tree (where the binaries live) and provide a mapping from absolute path to location in that tree. This CL avoids adding that complexity. This is not part of the language spec (and should not be), so no spec change is needed. If we need to make them work later, we can.

This is the source code repository for the Go programming language. For documentation about how to install and use Go, visit http://golang.org/ or load doc/install.html in your web browser. After installing Go, you can view a nicely formatted doc/install.html by running godoc --http=:6060 and then visiting http://localhost:6060/doc/install.html. Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file. -- Binary Distribution Notes If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this README). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path. For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile: export GOROOT=$HOME/go export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin See doc/install.html for more details.
