How to disable CGO?

[xaionaro]

Hello.

I need to set something like CGO_ENABLED=0. There's some code that has different implementations for cases if CGo is supported (+build cgo) and if CGo is not supported (+build !cgo). And I need to compile the second variant. It would be nice if you would help me to understand how can I do it without manually modifying all my dependencies (which could use CGo)?

I'm not sure you can compile a TinyGo program without CGo support at this time. @aykevl can confirm or correct that.

That's correct, CGo support cannot currently be disabled.

Ideally I hope to make CGo "just work" (more reliably than the standard Go toolchain), but we're not there yet. Until that time, adding support for CGO_ENABLED seems sensible.

@xaionaro can you test this PR? #821

@aykevl : As experiment I've tried to make similar changes within tinygo (as in the PR) and it didn't help. But I was hurrying so I suppose I just missed something. Yes, I will test it within a week. Thank you :)

Sorry for the late answer. It works. Thank you.
