Hey everyone, I am in need of some help. I have written this
Windows CP949 encoding table
https://github.com/zhad3/zencoding/blob/main/windows949/source/zencoding/windows949/table.d which is used to convert CP949 to UTF-16.
After some research about how to initialize immutable associative
arrays people suggested using `shared static this()`. So far this
worked for me, but I recently discovered that DMD cannot compile
this in release mode with optimizations.
`dub build --build=release` or `dmd` with `-release -O` fails:
```
code windows949
function
zencoding.windows949.fromWindows949!(immutable(ubyte)[]).fromWindows949
code table
function zencoding.windows949.table._sharedStaticCtor_L29_C1
dmd failed with exit code -11.
```
I usually compile my projects using LDC where this works fine,
but I don't want to force others to use LDC because of this one
problem.
Hence I'd like to ask on how to change the code so that it
compiles on DMD in release mode (with optimizations). I thought
about having a computational algorithm instead of an encoding
table but sadly I could not find any references in that regard.
Apparently encoding tables seem to be the standard.
