Struct with pointers #12

Closed martijn-dd closed 7 years ago

martijn-dd commented 7 years ago

At the moment I am unable to copy struct A to struct B. It does not copy because this check: fromField.Type().AssignableTo(toField.Type()) on line 73 returns false. It is false because fromField type is *string and toField type is string. Is it possible to copy these two kind of structs?

type A struct {
    Title *string
    Description *string
    Status *bool
}
type B struct {
    Title string
    Description string
    Status bool
}
