time.Time problem

[forever-eight]

type User struct {
Name   string `bson:"name"`
Email  string `bson:"email"`
Member Member

}

type Member struct {
Name string bson:"name"
Type string bson:"type"
Date time.Time
}
u := User{
Name: "Bob",
Email: "[email protected]",
Member: Member{
Name: "Bobby",
Date: time.Now(),
},
}
encryptedOrder := deepcopy.MustAnything(u).(User)

time.Time won't work correctly

[forever-eight]

Output (encryptedOrder) = {Bob [email protected] {Bobby 0001-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 UTC}}

@forever-eight @onyxg Maintainer doesn't seem to be active so I forked the repo and made a fix handle the time.Time :

FWIIW, I did a from scratch reimplementation of this here: https://github.com/brunoga/deep

Not only it supports time.Time, it also supports all unexported fields as long as they have a supported type.
