GoLand EAP 20: Go Build Run Configuration and Other Improvements
Hurray! A fresh GoLand EAP is now out. One of the most notable changes in this update is a new type of run configuration: Go Build. This run configuration replaces the Go Application run configuration, and it basically runs the Go build command. You can configure this run configuration for a file, package or directory:
If the build command produces a binary, the IDE will run it. Otherwise, the IDE will simply show the build output. If you don’t want to run the binary, you can uncheck the corresponding option.
We hope with this addition your workflow and build process, in general, will now be even more straightforward.
Last but not least, the Status Bar now includes a widget (on the right-hand side) for quick access to the Go settings, UI theme, keymap, plugins, etc.
In addition to these improvements, the update has some bugfixes. Please give the update a thorough try and share your feedback with us in our issue tracker!
Happy developing!
