I've got a record definition along the lines of: -record(myrec, {foo = undefined, bar=undefined}).
To help with debugging, I'd like a function that will print out something like the following text:
#record{foo = 42, bar = the_answer_to_the_question}
Does such a function exist, or must I write my own version of the function for each record type? I know I can just use io:format("~p~n", [ MyRecord ]), but I'd really like the fieldnames to also be printed.
