Hi, I was surprised that the funcs f and g do not generate the same assembly code:
func f() string { s := "a" + "b" return s } func g() string { s := "a" s += "b" return s } The compiled assembly respects the apparent instructions of the source code, with g calling runtime.concatstring2, while f does not (f benefits from an optimization that transforms "a"+"b" into the constant "ab"). I don't know exactly what SSA does in the compiler, but I thought it would be capable of optimizing f and g into the exact same generated code. Am I missing something? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
