DRAFT RELEASE NOTES - Introduction to Go 1.12

+ +

+ + Go 1.12 is not yet released. These are work-in-progress + release notes. Go 1.12 is expected to be released in February 2019. + +

+ +

+ The latest Go release, version 1.12, arrives six months after Go 1.11. + Most of its changes are in TODO. + As always, the release maintains the Go 1 promise of compatibility. + We expect almost all Go programs to continue to compile and run as before. +

+ +

Changes to the language

+ +

+ There are no changes to the language specification. +

+ +

Tools

+ +

Build cache requirement

+ +

+ The build cache is now required as a step toward eliminating + $GOPATH/pkg. Setting the environment variable + GOCACHE=off to disable the + build cache + has no effect in Go 1.12. +

+ +

Godoc

+ +

+ In Go 1.12, godoc no longer has a command-line interface and + is only a web server. Users should use go doc + for command-line help output instead. +

+ +

Core library

+ +

+ All of the changes to the standard library are minor. +

+ +

Minor changes to the library

+ +

+ As always, there are various minor changes and updates to the library, + made with the Go 1 promise of compatibility + in mind. +
