Functions

func ExportData

func ExportData(pkg *types.Package) []byte

ExportData serializes the interface (exported package objects) of package pkg and returns the corresponding data. The export format is described elsewhere (TODO).

func ImportData

func ImportData(imports map[string]*types.Package, data []byte) (int, *types.Package, error)

ImportData imports a package from the serialized package data and returns the number of bytes consumed and a reference to the package. If data is obviously malformed, an error is returned but in general it is not recommended to call ImportData on untrusted data.
