example/reverse: delete The reverse bindings allow access to Java and ObjC APIs by importing Java/... and Objc/... package from Go. The gobind tool automatically create the bindings for the API referenced from the packages. The reverse example takes that ability too far, however. It creates a circular dependency from the Android databinding layout files to exported Go types while those same Go types access the Java classes generated by databinding. It works almost by accident, but not for newer Gradle versions. The circular dependencies are bad, but the underlying circular references created by using the reverse bindings this way are worse. I haven't found a satisfactory was to avoid retaining references to Go objects from Java and back without carefully and manually breaking cycles at appropriate times. One might succeed in ObjC where breaking reference cycles are already necessary, but not in Java. The reverse example is a nice technical feat, but promises more than it can deliver. Delete it.

The Go mobile repository holds packages and build tools for using Go on mobile platforms.
Package documentation as a starting point:
The Go Mobile project is experimental. Use this at your own risk. While we are working hard to improve it, neither Google nor the Go team can provide end-user support.
This is early work and installing the build system requires Go 1.5. Follow the instructions on golang.org/wiki/Mobile to install the gomobile command, build the basic and the bind example apps.
Contributions to Go are appreciated. See https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html.
