Description
Bit of a confusing title, sorry. Basically I've found myself in positions where I need to invoke a function with named args that I've been passed dynamically:
# like so...
fn_to_call(; some_arg = 123) = println("woooo: $some_arg")
arg_name = :some_arg
arg_val = 678
# I want to invoke my function! The syntax currently supported goes like so:
fn_to_call(; [(arg_name, arg_val)]...)
# Don't get me wrong, that's pretty sweet, but personally I think it could be even more straightforward... like:
fn_to_call(; $arg_name = arg_val)As I'm writing this I'm starting to think this could cause horrible problems when defining functions inside of macros... but maybe I'm wrong. Either way I'd be interested to hear what people think!
