I'm trying to write code that recursively traverses a struct and keeps track of pointers to all its fields to do basic analysis (size, number of references, etc). However, I'm running into an issue where I can't seem to get reflection to give me the pointer to a pure struct. I have the following code as an example:
type foo struct {
A *bar
data []int8
}
type bar struct {
B *foo
ptrData *[]float64
}
func main() {
dataLen := 32
refData := make([]float64, dataLen)
fooObj := foo{data: make([]int8, dataLen)}
barObj := bar{
B: &fooObj,
ptrData: &refData,
}
fooObj.A = &barObj
fooVal := reflect.ValueOf(fooObj)
_ := fooVal.Addr().Pointer() // fails
// More analysis code after this
}
If I wanted to traverse fooObj
, that would be fine until I entered barObj
at which point I again encounter fooObj
. Because I don't have a way to get the pointer for the initial fooObj
encounter, I end up traversing fooObj
twice until I hit barObj
the second time and exit the recursion. Any idea how to get a struct's pointer using reflection?
