testsrc

Overview ¶

Package testsrc is a package for testing spew with cgo.

NOTE: Due to the following build constraints, this file will only be compiled when both cgo is supported and "-tags testcgo" is added to the go test command line. This code should really only be in the dumpcgo_test.go file, but unfortunately Go will not allow cgo in test files, so this is a workaround to allow cgo types to be tested. This configuration is used because spew itself does not require cgo to run even though it does handle certain cgo types specially. Rather than forcing all clients to require cgo and an external C compiler just to run the tests, this scheme makes them optional.
