Go编译器说“已声明且未使用”,但正在使用它们

I have the following function that is giving me "variable declared and not used" errors:

type Comparison struct {
        Left []byte
        Right []byte
        Name string
}

func img(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request, c appengine.Context, u *user.User) {
  key := datastore.NewKey("Comparison", r.FormValue("id"), 0, nil)
  side := r.FormValue("side")
  comparison := new(Comparison)
  err := datastore.Get(c, key, comparison)
  check(err)

  if( side == "left"){
    m, _, err := image.Decode(bytes.NewBuffer(comparison.Left))
  } else {
    m, _, err := image.Decode(bytes.NewBuffer(comparison.Right))
  }
  check(err)

  w.Header().Set("Content-type", "image/jpeg")
  jpeg.Encode(w, m, nil)
}

It gives me the following errors:

dpcompare.go:171: m declared and not used
dpcompare.go:171: err declared and not used
dpcompare.go:173: m declared and not used
dpcompare.go:173: err declared and not used
dpcompare.go:178: undefined: m
dpcompare.go:185: key declared and not used

The thing is m, err, and key are all being used. I can't wrap my head around why the compiler thinks thy are not.

As @kostix said, m is local to the scope of the if. Try this code

type Comparison struct {
        Left []byte
        Right []byte
        Name string
}

func img(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request, c appengine.Context, u *user.User) {
  key := datastore.NewKey("Comparison", r.FormValue("id"), 0, nil)
  side := r.FormValue("side")
  comparison := new(Comparison)
  err := datastore.Get(c, key, comparison)
  check(err)

  // NOTE! now m is in the function's scope
  var m Image    
  if( side == "left"){
    m, _, err = image.Decode(bytes.NewBuffer(comparison.Left))
  } else {
    m, _, err = image.Decode(bytes.NewBuffer(comparison.Right))
  }
  check(err)

  w.Header().Set("Content-type", "image/jpeg")
  jpeg.Encode(w, m, nil)
}

I think the variables you declare in those if branches are local to the code blocks of these branches. This is not JavaScript (luckily). So just declare your variables somewhere above if and use = instead of := to assign to them.
