Reflect.Value.FieldByName导致恐慌

Question

I'm getting the following error when calling the .FieldByName method of a reflected value, the exact error is :-

panic: reflect: call of reflect.Value.FieldByName on ptr Value

and the code is :-

s := reflect.ValueOf(&value).Elem() (value is a struct)
metric := s.FieldByName(subval.Metric).Interface() (subval.Metric is a string)

I understand this isn't much, but this is all the information I can get.

Here's a link to the code on Go Playground: http://play.golang.org/p/E038cPOoGp

Answer 1

Your value is already a pointer to a struct. Try printing out s.Kind() in your code.

There's no reason to take the address of value, then call Elem() on that reflect.Value, which dereferences the pointer you just created.

s := reflect.ValueOf(value).Elem()
metric := s.FieldByName(subvalMetric).Interface()
fmt.Println(metric)
