The Go programming language

This change records more metadata about what influenced the creation of the object file. Specifically, if a package imports, say, "fmt" but does not need to describe any fmt types in its own export data, that package's object file did not mention the dependency on "fmt" before. Now it does. Listing the import is purely informational. It has no effect on which files are opened or consulted when importing a package. Import lines are marked indirect when they are needed to explain the API but were not imported directly. For example http imports crypto/tls and exports a struct with a field of type tls.ConnectionState, which contains an x509.Certificate. Since http does not import x509 but needs to explain the x509.Certificate type in its export data, the import of x509 is marked as indirect. These import lines were always present; marking them with the indirect comment makes clear which were imported directly and which are incidental. R=ken2 CC=golang-dev https://golang.org/cl/4295048 |

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.
