invalid composite literal type when creating struct

Question

I'm not too familiar with this in Go

type PageOffset int
type Page int

How would I create an instance of a struct using PageOffset & Page ?

type GetParams struct {
    Page *Page 
    PageOffset *PageOffset 
}

I've tried something like this but I am getting this error

invalid composite literal type


p := GetParams{}
p.Page = &Page{1}
p.PageOffset = &PageOffset{10}

Answer 1

As Page and PageOffset are not structs but rather new type definitions with underlying int types, you should use it like when using int directly

p := Page(1)
pO := PageOffset(2)
GetParams{
  Page:       &p,
  PageOffset: &pO,
}
