Newbie: Using string for io.Writer in Go

[sati...@gmail.com]

I wrote a function that takes io.Writer as parameter.
The idea is to write to a file or http.

How to use the same to write to a string ?

func SomeFun(w io.Writer) {
    fmt.Fprintln(w, "Hello")
}

someFun(io.Stdout)

var s string
someFun(s) //error

Thanks,
Satish K

Take a look at bytes.Buffer: http://golang.org/pkg/bytes/#Buffer

var b bytes.Buffer

someFun(&b)

s := b.String()
