在Go中使用反射设置切片索引

Question

I'm in Go, working with a reflect.Value representation of a slice. I have the following:

slice := reflect.MakeSlice(typ, len, cap)

If I want to get the ith value from slice, it's simple:

v := slice.Index(i) // returns a reflect.Value

However, I can't seem to find a way to set the ith value. reflect.Value has lots of setter methods, for example, if I had a map, m, the following is possible:

m.SetMapIndex(key, value) // key and value have type reflect.Value

But there doesn't seem to be an equivalent for slices. My one thought was that maybe the value returned from slice.Index(i) is actually a pointer somehow, so calling v := slice.Index(i); v.Set(newV) would work? I'm not sure. Ideas?

Figured it out! Turns out I posted this prematurely - my guess that slice.Index(0) returns a pointer was correct. In particular:

one := reflect.ValueOf(int(1))

slice := reflect.MakeSlice(reflect.TypeOf([]int{}), 1, 1)
v := slice.Index(0)
fmt.Println(v.Interface())

v.Set(one)
fmt.Println(v.Interface())

v = slice.Index(0)
fmt.Println(v.Interface())

prints:

0
1
1
