How to create a CDATA node of xml with go?

Question

I have the following struct:

type XMLProduct struct {
    XMLName          xml.Name `xml:\"row\"`
    ProductId        string   `xml:\"product_id\"`
    ProductN

I'm not sure which version of go the innerxml tag became available in, but it allows you to include data which won't be escaped:

Code:

package main

import (
    "encoding/xml"
    "os"
)

type SomeXML struct {
    Unescaped CharData
    Escaped   string
}

type CharData struct {
    Text []byte `xml:",innerxml"`
}

func NewCharData(s string) CharData {
    return CharData{[]byte("")}
}

func main() {
    var s SomeXML
    s.Unescaped = NewCharData("http://www.example.com/?param1=foo¶m2=bar")
    s.Escaped = "http://www.example.com/?param1=foo¶m2=bar"
    data, _ := xml.MarshalIndent(s, "", "\t")
    os.Stdout.Write(data)
}

Output:

    
    http://www.example.com/?param1=foo&param2=bar
