See: Can I specify a meaningful name for an anonymous class in C#?
In C# you can write:
var e = new { ID = 5, Name= "Prashant" };
assertEquals( 5, e.ID )
But in Scala I end up writing:
var e = (5, "Prashant")
assertEquals( 5, e._1 )
Scala maintains type safety through the use of generics (as does C#), but loses the readability of the name of each field, e.g I use "_1" instead of "ID".
Is there anything like this in Scala?
