Setting GOROOT and GOPATH after installing Go with Homebrew

I successfully installed Go by using the simplicity of Homebrew. Installation was fine but some errors occurs with doing a go get command or simply compiling the simple "hello world" program.

After few seconds, I realized how I sucks and forget to set up the GOPATH and GOROOT variables.

With Homebrew, the base installation of Go rely under /usr/local/Cellar/go/1.1.2.

Simply set GOROOT to /usr/local/Cellar/go/1.1.2/libexec
In fact, you have to set GOPATH to the directory that contains the src directory that contains the source of go main packages.

Set GOPATH to whatever you want that is different from GOROOT.

Geotagging JPEG with Core Foundation

I was searching a way to edit or add GPS metadata of JPEG files without using an external library inside a Mac Application. After looking on internet and reading the ImageIOKit documentation, I found an interesting post on the Apple Mailing List talking about this topic and an old bug related to it. It includes a code sample that is apparently working now (Mac Os X 10.8).  I just wanted to add some details about it :
  • The values corresponding to the kCGImagePropertyGPSLatitudeRef/kCGImagePropertyGPSLongitudedRef keys are expected to be of type NSString.
  • The values corresponding to the kCGImagePropertyGPSLatitude/kCGImagePropertyGPSLongitude keys are expected to be of type NSNumber.
