This also applies to the raspberry pi 4 / raspbian so maybe an os/linux label would also be appropriate here.

The golang seems doesn‘t support windows/arm64 for now. So, what is this issue's porpose?

Regarding the comment from @hengwu0

The golang seems doesn‘t support windows/arm64 for now. So, what is this issue's porpose?

Golang supports cross-compiling to a Windows ARM target without issue: export GOOS=windows export GOARCH=arm export GOARM=7 export CGO_ENABLED=0

And most of the common dev tools, such as language server, etc. install without problem, but the dlv package fails with the following errors:

Firstly, sorry that dlv doesn't support arm64 windows for now. Secondly, arm and arm64 are different ARCHs. If your issue is about arm on windows, please create another issue page.

Tips: just build main brunch of golang with GOARCH=arm64 GOOS=windows and you will get windows/arm64 product.

I had the same issue: golang version 1.15.2 vscode version: 1.52.2

right now seems to have been solved with: go get github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv run in terminal (still... I am not sure why...)

Maybe you did the same folly as me The operating system and processor architecture I used is Windows 64-bit ARM, but the version of Go I installed is go1.15.7.windows-386.msi. They crashed. I changed the pack to go1.15.7.windows-amd64.msi, it worked.

I just tried installing delve with go get github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv, which I believe attempts to install delve 1.7.3, on my Surface Pro X (arm64) and got the same error as the OP. After a little investigation I must say that I find this strange, because the file support_sentinel.go states that it should NOT be included and therefore should NOT throw this error, when being build on arm64 windows.

//+build !linux,!darwin,!windows,!freebsd linux,!amd64,!arm64,!386 darwin,!amd64,!arm64 windows,!amd64 freebsd,!amd64 I believe this means: include this file while building, when not on arm64 windows.

So technically it should not throw this error when go env GOARCH GOOS reports to be on arm64 and windows, which my machine does.

I tried deleting support_sentinel.go which bypasses the check, and then a lot of other errors popped up, so there is still something wrong here.

EDIT: Probably delve just does not support windows arm64 yet. My fiddling has been pointless.

It does now. Go version 1.7 has an official windows arm64 installer. Hopefully this means that delve will follow soon?

It is irrelevant weather Go AMD64 works on your arm64 machine because then it just runs in the emulator. I tried the same thing and for me delve did still not work, so it remains doubtful. In any case, the whole point here is, that now there is a Go version for arm64 namely go1.17.5.windows-arm64.msi and with that one (which is the correct one for a Windows arm64 machine) delve does not work. Hence my comments on this issue.
