Hi, please,...is it possible to use a capital letter in record syntax data
definition? For example
data Car =
Car { CarName :: !Text
,CarColor :: !Text
} deriving (Show,Generic)
When I try this I get: parse error on input `CarName'
The thing is that I'm trying to parse a json file (with Aeson package) that
has records starting with capital letter. After that I would like to parse
the JSON file with following code:
d <- (eitherDecode <$> getJSON) :: IO (Either String [Car])
where getJSON gets the json file from url
If not, what alternative do I have?
thanks,
m.
