Is it safe? When you're using package "unsafe", all bets are already off ;-) But OK, I'd say the type unsafe.Pointer represents values which are integers large enough to store pointer values of the target platform. Since *unsafe.Pointer is a pointer, I see no problem with type-converting it to unsafe.Pointer as both values definitely share the underlying representation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
