Description
Because unsafe.Pointer
is a *types.Basic
, the type stringifier uses a special case to print the package name:
case *Basic:
if t.kind == UnsafePointer {
buf.WriteString("unsafe.")
}
As written, this does not allow a given Qualifier function to run and control how the package name is printed, which means that anything which wants to print something other than "unsafe"
must do so by also special casing unsafe.Pointer
.
Is there any reason not to use the Qualifier function in writeType
when printing unsafe.Pointer
? This would be a very quick change, but I wanted to make sure the current functionality isn't deliberate before opening a CL.
