| // Package gcexportdata provides functions for reading and writing |
| // export data, which is a serialized description of the API of a Go |
| // package including the names, kinds, types, and locations of all |
| // exported declarations. |
| // |
| // The standard Go compiler (cmd/compile) writes an export data file |
| // for each package it compiles, which it later reads when compiling |
| // packages that import the earlier one. The compiler must thus |
| // contain logic to both write and read export data. |
| // (See the "Export" section in the cmd/compile/README file.) |
| // |
| // The [Read] function in this package can read files produced by the |
| // compiler, producing [go/types] data structures. As a matter of |
| // policy, Read supports export data files produced by only the last |
| // two Go releases plus tip; see https://go.dev/issue/68898. The |
| // export data files produced by the compiler contain additional |
| // details related to generics, inlining, and other optimizations that |
| // cannot be decoded by the [Read] function. |
| // |
| // In files written by the compiler, the export data is not at the |
| // start of the file. Before calling Read, use [NewReader] to locate |
| // the desired portion of the file. |
| // |
| // The [Write] function in this package encodes the exported API of a |
| // Go package ([types.Package]) as a file. Such files can be later |
| // decoded by Read, but cannot be consumed by the compiler. |
| // |
| // # Future changes |
| // |
| // Although Read supports the formats written by both Write and the |
| // compiler, the two are quite different, and there is an open |
| // proposal (https://go.dev/issue/69491) to separate these APIs. |
| // |
| // Under that proposal, this package would ultimately provide only the |
| // Read operation for compiler export data, which must be defined in |
| // this module (golang.org/x/tools), not in the standard library, to |
| // avoid version skew for developer tools that need to read compiler |
| // export data both before and after a Go release, such as from Go |
| // 1.23 to Go 1.24. Because this package lives in the tools module, |
| // clients can update their version of the module some time before the |
| // Go 1.24 release and rebuild and redeploy their tools, which will |
| // then be able to consume both Go 1.23 and Go 1.24 export data files, |
| // so they will work before and after the Go update. (See discussion |
| // at https://go.dev/issue/15651.) |
| // |
| // The operations to import and export [go/types] data structures |
| // would be defined in the go/types package as Import and Export. |
| // [Write] would (eventually) delegate to Export, |
| // and [Read], when it detects a file produced by Export, |
| // would delegate to Import. |
| // |
| // # Deprecations |
| // |
| // The [NewImporter] and [Find] functions are deprecated and should |
| // not be used in new code. The [WriteBundle] and [ReadBundle] |
| // functions are experimental, and there is an open proposal to |
| // deprecate them (https://go.dev/issue/69573). |
