Golang 中方法 value receiver 和 pointer receiver 区别

golang中方法的receiver为指针和不为指针有什么区别,在这里我以简单易懂的方法进行说明。

先想一想编程语言中方法是什么，和函数有什么区别？

方法其实就是一种特殊的函数,receiver就是隐式传入的第一实参。

什么情况下用 value receiver 什么情况下用 pointer receiver

type T struct {
    a int
}
func (tv  T) Mv(a int) int  { return 0 }  // value receiver
func (tp *T) Mp(a int) int  { return 1 }  // pointer receiver

receiver 类型是基础类型，例如slices, and small structs等值传递是更高效。very cheap so unless the semantics of the method requires a pointer, a value receiver is efficient and clear."

有如下性能测试

// Struct one empty string property
BenchmarkChangePointerReceiver  2000000000               0.36 ns/op
BenchmarkChangeItValueReceiver  500000000                3.62 ns/op


// Struct one zero int property
BenchmarkChangePointerReceiver  2000000000               0.36 ns/op
BenchmarkChangeItValueReceiver  2000000000               0.36 ns/op

两者区别与总结
