Analyzer gofixdirective ¶

gofixdirective: validate uses of gofix comment directives

The gofixdirective analyzer checks "//go:fix inline" directives for correctness.

The proposal https://go.dev/issue/32816 introduces the "//go:fix" directives.

The analyzer checks for the following issues:

- A constant definition can be marked for inlining only if it refers to another named constant.

//go:fix inline
const (
	a = 1       // error
	b = iota    // error
	c = a       // OK
	d = math.Pi // OK
)

- A type definition can be marked for inlining only if it is an alias.

//go:fix inline
type (
	T int    // error
	A = int  // OK
)

- An alias whose right-hand side contains a non-literal array size cannot be marked for inlining.

const two = 2

//go:fix inline
type (
	A = []int     // OK
	B = [1]int    // OK
	C = [two]int  // error
)
