Golang on eclipse: "Resource doesn't have a corresponding Go package" on Mac

As stated in the title, I have a problem running the Golang code on Eclipse. I'm currently using Mac, and I installed go by using homebrew.

Currently, the folder where go is installed is as follows.

/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.5.2/..

and after running Terminal and typing open ~/.bash_profile I added the following.

export GOROOT="/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.5.2/"
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

Am I still missing something else?

PS If I run the code using Terminal like go run main.go, I have absolutely no problem. The problem must be due to some misconfiguration in Eclipse.

I had the same problem and I did two things to solve it:

  1. I opened Run configurations, filtered using "Go" and created a new configuration (right click on "Go Application" as a result of the filter). In the Environment tab added a new variable: GOPATH = [path to your workspace].
  2. I had .go files right under src folder, and this is wrong. I created a folder under src folder and moved .go files to that folder.

The first step could be replaced by creating a system environment and adding it to the list using the "Select" option instead of creating a new one. I prefered to create a new one so I can run differente projects in the same laptop without having to change the value of the system environment.

I had the same error. Putting the source file under a sub-folder in src fixed it.

Go to 'Run Configurations' -> Filter with Go Application -> select your project and then click the Environment tab, then click on select button and tick the GOPATH environment. select apply and then Run.

Because the executable path is not right.
GoClipse compiles source into $project/bin, so we must set GOPATH = $project

Select project > Alt+Enter > Go Compiler > Use project specific settings > Eclipse GOPATH

In my case of wiki tutorial, GOPATH = :/home/sovann/go/wiki.
Then the IDE is able to locate /home/sovann/go/wiki/bin/main
