Convenience functions for dictionaries with Symbol keys.
Create a Dict{Symbol,}:
@SymDict(a=1, b=2)
Dict{Symbol,Any}(:a=>1,:b=>2)Capture local variables in a dictionary:
a = 1
b = 2
@SymDict(a,b)
Dict{Symbol,Any}(:a=>1,:b=>2)a = 1
b = 2
@SymDict(a,b,c=3)
Dict{Symbol,Any}(:a=>1,:b=>2,:c=3)Capture varags key,value arguments in a dictionary:
function f(x; option="Option", args...)
@SymDict(x, option, args...)
end
f("X", foo="Foo", bar="Bar")
Dict{Symbol,Any}(:x=>"X",:option=>"Option",:foo=>"Foo",:bar=>"Bar")Merge new entries into a dictionary:
d = @SymDict(a=1, b=2)
merge!(d, c=3, d=4)
Dict{Symbol,Any}(:a=>1,:b=>2,:c=3,:d=>4)Convert to/from `Dict{AbstractString,}:
d = @SymDict(a=1, b=2)
d = stringdict(d)
Dict{String,Any}("a"=>1,"b"=>2)
d = symboldict(d)
Dict{Symbol,Any}(:a=>1,:b=>2)
