无法分配给struct字段/分配给nil映射中的条目[重复]

Does anyone have any idea why this doesn't work?

I've been racking my brain for about 4 hours now. I cannot make it work.

In my opinion, I'm trying to do the same thing twice. I'm making a map of a field in a struct, and then I'm doing it again on another field in a different struct.

If I try to make the map. It fails with: "cannot assign to struct field. Bet.Events["one"].Runners in map".

So if I remove the make, and just try to assign it, I get: "assignment to entry in nil map"

var Bet BetStruct

type BetStruct struct {
    Events     map[string]Event
}

type Event struct {
    Name       string
    Runners    map[int]Runner
}

type Runner struct {
    Name       string
}

func main(){

    // == THIS WORKS FINE ==
    Bet.Events = make(map[string]Event)

    Bet.Events["one"] = Event{
        Name: "first",
    }
    Bet.Events["two"] = Event{
        Name: "second",
    }

    // == THIS DOES NOT WORK ==
    Bet.Events["one"].Runners = make(map[int]Runner)

    Bet.Events["one"].Runners[0] = Runner{
         Name:  "Jeff",
    }
}

</div>

The default value for map is nil (before or without make(map))

You set a default value for Runners in this code:

Bet.Events["one"] = Event{
    Name: "first",
}

So, Runners wasn't defined clearly and was setting to nil.

Structs are mutable expect map elements. You cannot reinitialize map element Bet.Events["one"] because is not addressable.

You need to do:

Bet.Events["one"] = Event{
    Name: "first",
    Runners: make(map[int]Runner),
}
