Contributing to go mobile

<p>All,</p> <p>Kind of an esoteric question, but I&#39;ve cloned the gomobile repo <a href="https://github.com/golang/mobile">https://github.com/golang/mobile</a> and I&#39;d like to contribute some source changes. I&#39;m not asking a question about the contribution process, I get that but I&#39;m struggling to build the actual repo. For instance when I try to build the &#34;bind&#34; package, I get an error complaining about path expectations for /golang.org. Despite the fact I cloned from github does my working path need to be src/golang.org/...?</p> <hr/>**评论：**<br/><br/>TheMerovius: <pre><p>A package can restrict the import path it can be imported at. This is to prevent importing the same name twice under different import paths and is often used for vanity imports (such as the golang.org/x repos).</p> <p>The package in question <a href="https://github.com/golang/mobile/blob/master/bind/bind.go#L10" rel="nofollow">does this</a></p></pre>victrolla: <pre><p>I read this Reddit every day in hopes to find awesome things like this I didn&#39;t know. </p></pre>caseynashvegas: <pre><p>Thanks for the detail there, I didn&#39;t know about this feature. I&#39;m not going to even complain about it being restricted via a comment :)</p></pre>upboatact: <pre><p>Did you clone it into your go workspace? Just in case someone does not know what a go workspace is: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160624020838/http://gowithconfidence.tumblr.com/post/118493925546/getting-started-with-go-workspaces" rel="nofollow">https://web.archive.org/web/20160624020838/http://gowithconfidence.tumblr.com/post/118493925546/getting-started-with-go-workspaces</a></p></pre>caseynashvegas: <pre><p>Yeah, as I was writing the post I kinda of realized what I was doing wrong, which was to parent under my github folder instead of golang.org. </p></pre>
