I'm new to Go and trying to learn how to call C from Go. I wrote this program to open a named semaphore, get the value and print it to the screen.
When I run it go build semvalue.go
I get the error:
./semvalue.go:16:14: unexpected type: ...
What does this mean? What am I doing wrong?
package main
import "fmt"
// #cgo LDFLAGS: -pthread
// #include <stdlib.h>
// #include <fcntl.h>
// #include <sys/stat.h>
// #include <semaphore.h>
import "C"
func main() {
name := C.CString("/fram")
defer C.free(name)
fram_sem := C.sem_open(name, C.O_CREAT, C.mode_t(0644), C.uint(1))
var val int
ret := C.sem_getvalue(fram_sem, val)
fmt.Println(val)
C.sem_close(fram_sem)
}
Thank you.
