Why you should care
You should almost always specify field names when initializing structs. This is now enforced by go vet.
How we detect
CAST Highlight counts one occurrence each time a struct field has no name, except when init concerns an array.
// bad
func foo {
// local var
k := User{"John", "Doe", true}
}
my_function(User{"Joe", "Bidon", true})
//good
func bar {
k := User{
FirstName: "John",
LastName: "Doe",
Admin: true,
}
}
func toto() {
sig = append(sig, common.LeftPadBytes([]byte{64}, 32)...)
tab = []String{“s1”, “s2”, “s3}
}
