func Elem ¶

func Elem[T canElem[T]](v T) T

Elem unwraps the underlying elem of the pointer.

Nested pointers are also supported - e.g. given "****value" it will return "value".

Non-pointer values will be returned as is.

func Fill ¶

func Fill(v reflect.Value) bool

func Filled ¶

func Filled(hint reflect.Type) (reflect.Value, bool)

Filled returns a new value T with all the exported pointer fields recursively set to non-nil zero values. That is, if type is a struct and contains field *int it will be set to &0. That logic also applies for nested structs.

func FindRecursiveType ¶

func FindRecursiveType(t reflect.Type) reflect.Type

func MustTypeAssert ¶ added in v1.8.0

func MustTypeAssert[T any](v reflect.Value) T

MustTypeAssert wraps reflect.TypeAssert.

func NameOf ¶

func NameOf[T any]() string

NameOf returns the name of the underlying type T.

func New ¶

func New[T any]() T

New returns a new zero value of T.

As a special case for pointers it will return a pointer to the zero value of T (not nil).
