Hi. The error code is a warning that the function main() has no return type defined and defaults to int which isn’t really good. Better to be explicit about the return types. However the function isn’t at line 3 in the add.c listing you present here so either something wierd is happening or you don’t list the same version as the one you tried to compile.

I pasted the same code here. If i run some other code also it gives same error.

No, Object file is not getting created

I tried a sample code it was not calling c func at all.
CODE:

package main

// #include <stdio.h>
//
// void sum(){
//  printf("hello world");
// }
import "C"

import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("this is before")
        C.sum()
fmt.Println("this is after")
}

When i run the above code the output was:
go run hello.go
this is before
this is after
