I need to compile programs within golang in golang. Is there any native form without using exec.Command("go","build") ?

You can try this

First set the $GOPATH

then set the $GOBIN

after that you can run go build or go get..

Unfortunately I think using exec.Command is your best bet to harness the tools written by the Go community in order to compile your go programs within a go program.
