大猩猩xmlrpc的小写方法

Question

I'm using Gorilla XMLRPC. As per the example,

func (h *HelloService) Say(r     *http.Request, 
                           args  *struct{Who string}, 
                           reply *struct{Message string}) error {
    reply.Message = "Hello, " + args.Who + "!"
    return nil
}

and RPC.RegisterService(new(HelloService), "") gives me a service HelloService.Say(). I would like to have helloService.say(). I was able to get the first part by modifying the register function to RPC.RegisterService(new(HelloService), "helloService"). But I'm not able to make lowercase methods exported.

I understand golang allows only uppercase methods to be exported. So is there any work-around for lowercase methods?

Answer 1

I think the first question is "why does it need to be [lowercase] "say" and the second question would need to be, if it needed to be that way, why use Go?

It's a convention that Uppercase methods and properties are exported and lowercase methods and properties are private.
