Well, they're not interchangeable since (1,2) doesn't specify
any labels.
in any case this now works:
//////////////////////////////
#import <flx.flxh>
var x = struct {a=1; b=2; };
println q"a=$(x.a), b=$(x.b)";
var y = (a=3, b=4);
println q"a=$(y.a), b=$(y.b)";
///////////////////////////
The RHS of the a=expr is an sor_condition or lower
precedence, otherwise you need brackets.
The grammar extension is trivial:
anon_value := lpar rassign (, rassign )* rpar =>#
"`(ast_record ,(cons _2 (map cadr _3)))"
;
rassign := sname = sor_condition =># "`(,_1 ,_3)";
It's actually not clear why not to use 'sexpr' rather
than sor_condition. sor_condition is the level down from
stuple, which is the one with the commas in it.
however:
(a=1,2,b=c)
is not actually ambiguous: it means
(a=(1,2),b=c)
and Dypgen should parse this correctly. However I banned it anyhow,
and forced the extra ().
