go - 什么是 cgo 类型，相当于指向结构的 const 指针？

Question

我在 C 中定义了一个外部函数:

//extern void goCallback(const struct libvlc_event_t*, void*);

在 go 中定义:

//export goCallback
func goCallback(event unsafe.Pointer, userData unsafe.Pointer) {
    log.Fatal("TODO goCallback")
}

编译代码时出现类型冲突错误

什么是 go 等同于 const struct libvlc_event_t*？

Answer 1

使用 typedef 创建结构的类型别名如下:

/*

typedef const struct libvlc_event_t clibvlc_event_t;
extern void goCallback(clibvlc_event_t*, void*);
*/
import "C"

//export goCallback
func goCallback(event *C.clibvlc_event_t, userData unsafe.Pointer) {
    log.Fatal("TODO goCallback")
}

如果你想知道go与 C.clibvlc_event_t 兼容的类型定义, 运行 cgo与 -godefs选项，即

go tool cgo -godefs <YOUR-GO-FILE>

例如，如果结构定义为 https://docs.libreoffice.org/avmedia/html/Types_8hxx_source.html

struct libvlc_event_t
{
    int   type;  // event type
    void *p_obj; // object emitting that event

    union // so far we don't need this.
    {
     struct {
        const char *dummy1;
        const char *dummy2;
      } padding;
    } u;
};

然后，go 中的兼容结构将是:

type VLCEvent struct {
    Type      int32
    Pad_cgo_0 [4]byte
    Obj       *byte
    U         [16]byte
}

//Cast C struct to Go struct
ev := (*VLCEvent)(unsafe.Pointer(event))

//Cast Go struct to C struct
p := (*C.clibvlc_event_t)(unsafe.Pointer(&VLCEvent{}))

添加示例结构。
