It's a lot like unpacking a type, except instead of defining new variables for the unpacked values, your macro places the type instance designation (t. ...). On Sunday, October 9, 2016 at 10:55:45 AM UTC-7, Tom Breloff wrote: > > What about it? I don't think there's anything like this in

Hi all, I'm thinking about how to translate a Python interface that makes extensive use of __getattr__ and __setattr__ overloading to allow chaining a series of option values like this example: mysolver.linear_system.parameters.solver_type = "GMRES" Each time a . is encountered, the appropriate

Missed that one, though it should be mysolver[:linear_system][:parameters][:solver_type] = :GMRES There's no reason for an algorithm choice to be a String. But this entire thing seems wrong-headed. The choice of the solver method should likely be done by dispatching on the solve method

Yes, symbols would be preferred. Checking equality two symbols is quicker, but, more importantly, symbols are natural to Julia metaprogramming/expressions, meaning that if you use symbols then the expression is easier to generate via macros. Tom is getting shy, but really take a look at

OK, thanks, so symbols are definitely preferred for the [] variant then? As for using dispatch, I am certainly all for designing a "proper" Julian interface, but the number of parameters here can be daunting, see e.g. here for a more complete example:
