在Go中创建Windows快捷方式（.lnk）

Question

I would like to create a Windows Shortcut (.lnk) to the desktop and the startmenu in Golang.

I actually got the Desktop & Startmenu folders via the gowin module and I would like to create a shortcut to thoses locations.

I searched but I did not find any golang project for it. Should I create it ? Is there an other pretty method ?

Using https://github.com/go-ole/go-ole:

ole.CoInitializeEx(0, ole.COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED|ole.COINIT_SPEED_OVER_MEMORY)
oleShellObject, err := oleutil.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
if err != nil {
    return err
}
defer oleShellObject.Release()
wshell, err := oleShellObject.QueryInterface(ole.IID_IDispatch)
if err != nil {
    return err
}
defer wshell.Release()
cs, err := oleutil.CallMethod(wshell, "CreateShortcut", dst)
if err != nil {
    return err
}
idispatch := cs.ToIDispatch()
oleutil.PutProperty(idispatch, "TargetPath", src)
oleutil.CallMethod(idispatch, "Save")
