Functions

func Alloc

func Alloc(rv reflect.Value)

Alloc allocates a new value for a nil pointer and sets the pointer to it.

This function causes a panic if rv is not a settable pointer.

func Deref

func Deref(rv reflect.Value) reflect.Value

Deref follows pointers until it reaches a non-pointer, allocating if nil.

If a nil pointer is encountered along the way, Deref will attempt to allocate a new value for it. If it encounters an un-settable nil pointer (e.g., one within an unexported struct field), it stops and returns that pointer to prevent a panic. The final, non-pointer value is returned.
