How to set bool pointer to true in struct literal?

Question

I have the function below which accepts a bool pointer. I\'m wondering if there is any notation which allows me to set the value of the is field to true

Answer 1

No.

There is no syntax to define a pointer to a primitive type, other than the zero value returned by new. The same goes for numeric types, and strings.

You either need to create a value before hand to take the address of, or you create the pointer with a zero value, and assign a new value after the fact.
