// Package gcexportdata provides functions for locating, reading, and
// writing export data files containing type information produced by the
// gc compiler. This package supports go1.7 export data format and all
// later versions.
//
// Although it might seem convenient for this package to live alongside
// go/types in the standard library, this would cause version skew
// problems for developer tools that use it, since they must be able to
// consume the outputs of the gc compiler both before and after a Go
// update such as from Go 1.7 to Go 1.8. Because this package lives in
// golang.org/x/tools, sites can update their version of this repo some
// time before the Go 1.8 release and rebuild and redeploy their
// developer tools, which will then be able to consume both Go 1.7 and
// Go 1.8 export data files, so they will work before and after the
// Go update. (See discussion at https://golang.org/issue/15651.)

// Find returns the name of an object (.o) or archive (.a) file

// If no file was found, an empty filename is returned.

// A relative srcDir is interpreted relative to the current working directory.
//
// Find also returns the package's resolved (canonical) import path,
// reflecting the effects of srcDir and vendoring on importPath.

// Deprecated: Use the higher-level API in golang.org/x/tools/go/packages,
// which is more efficient.
