I did not understand the use of plugin. I can't use a plugin with different go versions even with minor version because plugin.open is failed. The only way which I found to use plugin'functions is through LD_PRELOAD.
I created a plugin using https://github.com/vladimirvivien/go-plugin-example go build -buildmode=plugin -o eng/eng.so eng/greeter.go Created a go binary using command: go build -linkshared test.go Load plugin with test binary: export LD_PRELOAD=./eng.so; ./test plugin addresses will be loaded into firstmoduledata structure of go runtime. Created another go binary (which I want to use) using command: go build test2.go load plugin with test binary: export LD_PRELOAD=./eng.so; ./test2 in this case, plugin addresses are not loaded into firstmoduledata. This is because addmoduledata() is not called. I did not understand why addresses are not loaded in this case while if i load plugin using plugin.open then addresses are loaded for same go binary test2 Please suggest how to load plugin addresses into go runtime for this case. Can't I call addmoduledata in this case? go versions 1.15,1.16,1.17 os - ubuntu 16 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
