xrefs := []*struct{field1 int}{}
var x struct{field1 int}
for i := range longArrayName {
x = longArrayName[i] //overwrite x with the copy
x.field = value //modify the copy in x
xrefs = append(xrefs, &x) //&x has the same value regardless of i
}
The desired refactoring would have been to this:
xrefs := []*struct{field1 int}{}
for i := range longArrayName {
x := &longArrayName[i] //this also declares x to be a *struct{field1 int}
x.field = value
xrefs = append(xrefs, x)
}
