Can I use either template Haskell, GHC Generics, or something else to
get the list of Constructors in Codes? Then I could do `map show
codeSumTypeMembers` and get `["A0100A","A0500A"]`?
Here's an example of solving this problem manually:
data Codes = A0100A | A0500A deriving Show
codeExists "A0100A" = True
codeExists "A0500A" = True
codeExists _ = False
main = print $ codeExists xmlElementName
where xmlElementName = "A0500A"
-- λ> main
-- True
