Installed GoClipse v0.80 into Eclipse Luna on OS X Mavericks...
Set the following values inside Eclipse's Preferences --> Go:
GOROOT: /usr/local/go GOPATH: /DevProjects/Go/GoHello (this has a src folder underneath it)
I created a Go project (along with new Go file) and put the following code inside src/Hello.go:
package src
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello")
}
When I run Hello.go, inside the Eclipse Console this what appears:
************ Running Go build for project: GoHello ************
************ Build terminated. ************
How coming its not printing Hello to stdout?
You need package main
:
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello")
}
Output:
Hello
The Go Programming Language Specification
A complete program is created by linking a single, unimported package called the
main
package with all the packages it imports, transitively. Themain
package must have package namemain
and declare a functionmain
that takes no arguments and returns no value.func main() { … }
Program execution begins by initializing the
main
package and then invoking the functionmain
. When that function invocation returns, the program exits. It does not wait for other (non-main
) goroutines to complete.
