This proposal is to add an option
-embed
into mockgen.Why: Sometimes we need to embed the source's interface (or structure) into a mock.
For example, a grpc server takes a mocked server implementation as an argument and determines if the interface is actually embedded as follows:
https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/56ac86fa0f3940cb79946ce2c6e56f7ee7ecae84/server.go#L671
The following sample will result in an error when executed. https://github.com/stoikheia/GomockProposalSample1/blob/517c5bb860be39c9d2fa4faff6b0542fe29a7f3e/server/server_test.go#L26-L36
I think that
-embed
like option is necessary from above.
