x/tools/cmd/godoc: public fields of a private embedded struct do not appear in GoDoc #59951
Closed as not planned
Description
What version of Go are you using (go version)?
$ go version go version go1.20.1 darwin/amd64
Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?
Yes
What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?
go env Output
$ go env GOARCH="amd64" GOOS="darwin"
What did you do?
I created two structs, one private, one public. I attached a public method to the private struct and then embedded the private struct in the public struct. I can access that public method from elsewhere, but cannot view it in Godoc. Code below:
type min interface {
Var()
}
type Other interface {
Something()
}
type Max struct {
Other
min
}
What did you expect to see?
- I expect to see that this in an available method on the public struct.
What did you see instead?
