How to build Aspose.Cells for Go via C++ from the Source Code Package

1. Download Aspose.Cells for Go via C++ source package

• You can download the source code package from two locations:

1. Download the source code package from the Aspose.Cells for Go via C++ download page.
2. Download the source code package from the GitHub repository or directly via GitHub Archive Package.

2. How to install Aspose.Cells for Go via C++ package into your project

• Create a directory for your project and a main.go file within. Add the following code to your main.go.

package main

import (
	. "asposecells"
	"fmt"
)

func main() {
	lic, _ := NewLicense()
	lic.SetLicense_String("YOUR_LICENSE_File_PATH")
	workbook, _ := NewWorkbook()
	worksheets, _ := workbook.GetWorksheets()
	worksheet, _ := worksheets.Get_Int(0)
	cells, _ := worksheet.GetCells()
	cell, _ := cells.Get_String("A1")
	cell.PutValue_String_Bool("Hello World!", true)
	style, _ := cell.GetStyle()
	style.SetPattern(BackgroundType_Solid)
	color, _ := NewColor()
	color.Set_Color_R(uint8(255))
	color.Set_Color_G(uint8(128))
	style.SetForegroundColor(color)
	cell.SetStyle_Style(style)
	workbook.Save_String("HELLO.pdf")
}

• Initialize the project go.mod file

go mod init main

• Extract the ZIP file to the cells-go-cpp folder in your project directory.

cells-go-cpp-samples
  cells-go-cpp (folder)
    start_up.go
    aspose_cells.go
    ...
    go.mod
    AsposeCellsCWrapper.h
  main.go
  go.mod

• Modify your Go go.mod file to specify the package’s location:

module main

go 1.19

require github.com/aspose-cells/aspose-cells-go-cpp/v25 v25.1.0
replace github.com/aspose-cells/aspose-cells-go-cpp/v25 v25.1.0 => ./cells-go-cpp

• Set your PATH to point to the shared libraries in Aspose.Cells for Go via C++ in your current command shell. Replace your_version with the version of Aspose.Cells for Go via C++ you are running.

set PATH=%PATH%;%YourProjectPath%/cells-go-cpp-samples/cells-go-cpp/lib/win_x86_64/

Or in PowerShell:

$env:Path = $env:Path + ";${YourProjectPath}\cells-go-cpp-samples\cells-go-cpp\lib\win_x86_64\"

You may also copy the DLL files from the above path to the same location as your project executable.

• Run your created application.

go run main.go
