You probably saw the other response already, but I don't think that the compiler will work with 1.8 as a "host". You'd have to install a 1.9 on the host, and somehow tell it that it should compile .go files with the endianness of the target. >> Linking against uninstalled libtool libraries works fine, as long as you >> don't install. > > That's right, but that seems awkward to me, except for tests. I've used it in GStreamer for years now -- not a proof of correctness to be sure, but it works well enough to hack. Cheers, Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
