Error: "C source files not allowed when using cgo:....."

[Hartmut König]

Hi folks,

i am trying to configure my workspace in eclipse for go-development.

After setting the GOPATH, i get the error message at building a sample go-file:

***************** Building Go workspace ******************

>> Running: /usr/local/bin/go install -v -gcflags -N -l ./...

     with GOPATH: /workspace

package testing

       imports runtime: C source files not allowed when not using cgo: atomic_amd64x.c defs.c float.c headdump.c lfstack.c malloc.c mcache.c

     ^^^ Terminated, exit code: 1 ^^^ 

***************** Build terminated. *****************

Any hint would be appreciated.

Anybody here?

I have no idea why that error happens. Did you try a simple Go workspace with just a Hello World? What are the contents of the package "testing" ? (Note that Goclipse will try to build the entire GOPATH, so maybe it's building other packages you don't it to?)

hi,

thanks for the response.

Well, i isolated the libdir into my workdir, so i got another error: 

************  Building Go workspace  ************

-------   Building Go project: Test-Projekt  -------

>> Running: /usr/local/bin/go install -v -gcflags -N -l ./...

   with GOPATH: /Users/harty/Documents/workspace_new/Test-Projekt:/Users/harty/Documents/workspace_new/Test-Projekt/src

runtime

go tool: no such tool "6g"

   ^^^ Terminated, exit code: 3 ^^^

************  Build terminated.  ************

This is my src:

package testing

import "fmt"

func main() {

     fmt.Println("Hello");

} 

Any hint?

thanks

No idea, but is this even a Goclipse related issue? If you have the same problem whilst invoking go install in the command line (with the same env vars), then it should a Go toolchain issue. Better to ask in to Go user newsgroups about it

I don't know if you have solved this problem. But I ran into precisely the same problem.

In my case, in the default configuration of the Goclipse, $GOROOT was pointing to /usr/ ! Thus go was trying to compile the Linux header files (in /usr/src), hence the error message.

I simply had to select /usr/lib/go for $GOROOT (preferences -> go).

All the Best,
