Golang document scanning with TWAIN

[dtr...@gmail.com]

Dear Gophers I'm an absolute begginner in Go. I do not grasp the CGO completely

I wanted to ask about TWAIN scanning in windows.

TWAIN has a huge .h file ( http://twain.org/docs/530fe0db85f7511c51000500/twain.zip )

that can be found at http://twain.org/scanner-application-developers/specification-and-tools.html

Did someone implement support of TWAIN in a Win 386 system to give some help or at least to give some directions in order me

to start with this source code?

P.S. I know one gentleman wrote a SANE bridge for LINUX

Never seen one. 

You won't need to convert the whole .h file, pick the minimal subset.

1. See how http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/296/A-C-Wrapper-for-TWAIN uses it and only convert those.

2. Take a look how Go can use dll files (https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/WindowsDLLs)

3. Take a look at other bindings (should be plenty here https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/projects#windows)
