# Go Crosscompile

# Explanation
symbol() function in pkg/mypkg/symbol_linux.go and symbol_windows.go is different. When running and building program, GOOS choses right one. for more information run these in cmd/app/ directory: 
```sh
  go build .
  ./app
  # Output:
  #1+2=linux
  #a/b/c
```

---

```sh
  env GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build .
  ./app.exe
  # Output:
  # -Some random wine logs if running on linux with wine-
  #1-2=windows
  #a\b\c 
```
---
```sh
  file app*
  # see information about executables
```
# HELP NEEDED
- VSCode gives redecleration error when using same name as function names. How to solve this?
maybe see https://github.com/golang/go/issues/29202 ?
- see more in this [doc](https://git.aliberksandikci.com.tr/Liderahenk/ahenk-docs/src/branch/main/dev/environment.md#fixme-build-flag-issues)

# Before trying
- make sure you have installed **wine** in your linux system
  - or use a windows system too
