How do I create an executable from Golang that doesn't open a console window when run?
console, go
Solution
The documentation found online says I can compile with something along the lines of,
`go build -ldflags -Hwindowsgui filename.go`
But this gives an error: `unknown flag -Hwindowsgui`
With more recent (1.1?) versions of the compiler, this should work:
`go build -ldflags -H=windowsgui filename.go`
When I continued searching around I found a note that the official documentation should be updated soon, but in the meantime there are a lot of older-style example answers out there that error.
Problem
I created an application that I want to run invisibly in the background (no console). How do I do this? (This is for Windows, tested on Windows 7 Pro 64 bit)
