Your buffer solution works, but you need to put it inside a
*function*, not at declaration scope. What you wrote declares
*runtime* variables, which wouldn't be usable at compile time
(if you got it past the parser, which is where it was failing).
So for instance:
```d
mixin template implement()
{
mixin(() {
// ctfe new array is basically the same as static array
char[] buffer = new char[4096];
int pos = 0;
void append(string str)
{
buffer[pos .. pos + str.length] = str[];
pos += str.length;
}
append("void* ctx;");
return buffer[0 .. pos];
}());
}
```
And yes, it is faster to do this than appending. But you have
to do a *lot* of it to make a huge difference.

That's annoying that it couldn't have been more straight
forward.. but that'll do it for now, it works, thanks
