How to ignore error returned by local function

[mxinden]

How can I ignore the error returned by the local function myLocalFunc?

main.go:

package main

func main() {
	myLocalFunc := func() error {
		return nil
	}

	myLocalFunc()
}

(https://play.golang.org/p/WClnCYmq4ne)

ignore.txt:

myLocalFunc
(github.com/mxinden/errcheck_test).myLocalFunc
(*github.com/mxinden/errcheck_test).myLocalFunc
github.com/mxinden/errcheck_test.myLocalFunc
*github.com/mxinden/errcheck_test.myLocalFunc

errcheck output:

# Inside $GOPATH/github.com/mxinden/errcheck_test
$ errcheck -verbose -exclude ignore.txt ./...

@kisielk friendly ping.

Consider using _ = myLocalFunc(). This makes errcheck happy and it's also unambiguous that you're intentionally ignoring the error when someone reads the code.

Thanks @dtcaciuc!
