Question about Golang runtime enviroment

[louis...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I wrote a program with golang, and go build in one machine.

Then i copy the generated program to another machine which have no golang installed.

But I found the program works well on another machine, So i want to know the golang enviroment

is just needed when build the program, after the program built, it can run any where (even without golang enviroment)?

Am i right?

Any idea will be appreciated!

Hi,

as long as your programs are pure Go there should be no problems executing binaries on different machines with the same architectures & operating systems (assuming standard compilation). Go programs are statically linked, you don't need to bundle any libraries or "golang environment" with them.

Best,

Also, this kind of questions are better suited for the golang-nuts and not golang-dev.

Yes, that is correct. The running program needs only the final binary.
