Sometimes I get this error when using NamedTuples in a function.

ERROR: syntax: Global method definition around C:\Users\Arnav Sood\.julia\packages\Parameters\rOe8Q\src\Parameters.jl:596 needs to be placed at the top level, or use "eval".

The line in question is

(::typeof($NT))($(args...)) = $nt

This is on v10.2 and

Can you post MWE? Otherwise this will be tricky to track down. Thanks!

mauro3 commented

Can you report whether this still occurs in Julia 1.1?

arnavs commented

Must have missed the earlier comment r.e. MWE.

Sure, will investigate in Julia 1.1
