From a stream, I receive a number of arrays and strings as their field names. How can I dynamically build a structure from it? Of course, trying to define a struct within the code generates ERROR: LoadError: syntax: “struct” expression not at top level

You can’t declare structs on the fly like that. They are a part of the global state. But you can create nested Dicts or NamedTuples.

julia> ntup2 = (a = 1, b = 2) (a = 1, b = 2) julia> ntup2.b 2 Excellent, thx!
