What did you do?

Edit a "windows" file (platform specific) .. main_windows.go on MacOS Arm64 / M1.

I have two files, main_darwin.go and main_windows.go that serve two purposes, the Darwin one is for testing the code on MacOS, while the windows one is what will ultimately ship and be packaged.

When editing the main_windows.go file I am unable to navigate to symbol / function using VsCode.

What did you see happen?

When navigating to a symbol by pressing F12, I get the message No definition found for FatalF.

I notice this stack trace:
ERR no package metadata for file file:///Users/wayneforrest/Documents/Projects/nextup/nextup-lib/main_windows.go: Error: no package metadata for file file:///Users/wayneforrest/Documents/Projects/nextup/nextup-lib/main_windows.go at handleResponse (/Users/wayneforrest/.vscode/extensions/golang.go-0.41.4/dist/goMain.js:8606:40) at handleMessage (/Users/wayneforrest/.vscode/extensions/golang.go-0.41.4/dist/goMain.js:8416:11) at processMessageQueue (/Users/wayneforrest/.vscode/extensions/golang.go-0.41.4/dist/goMain.js:8431:13) at Immediate.<anonymous> (/Users/wayneforrest/.vscode/extensions/golang.go-0.41.4/dist/goMain.js:8407:11) at process.processImmediate (node:internal/timers:476:21)

Note the stdlog:
import ( "fmt" stdLog "log" "runtime/debug" "sync" "time"

What did you expect to see?

When I navigate to the symbol/function from the main_darwin.go file, it works, but not when I navigate from main_windows.go file.

Hi, which gopls version are you using? This should work from [email protected]+.

In a dupe of this issue (golang/vscode-go#3421), we learned that this is related to cgo files, and the fact that cross platform development implies CGO_ENABLED=0.

Therefore, this is a dupe of #65758.
