I need a List(foo(b)) that is the problem capnp compile command generates an error saying this is impossible

"Pointers" aren't an explicit thing in the schema language. Data, Text,
structs, lists and interfaces are implicitly pointers, while primitive
types like Bool and Float64 are not. Type parameters must always be
pointer types. So in this case you can just do:

struct Foo(A) {
    field @0 :A;
}

struct B{};

struct C {
    field :List(B);
}

I have a Struct containing generics which accepts another struct such
    as
    ```
    struct foo (a){
    � � �  field @0 :a
    }
    struct b{}
    struct c{
    field:List(a(b)
    }
    ```
the example above wont work because I need to pass a b pointer to a but
    There is no documentation for defining pointers
    I tried *b and &b which does not work.
    How do I define the pointer?
