I will try to remove all snippets in my code that aren't relevant but still
exhibit the issue, when I find the time. What I forgot to mention is that
this error appeared when I did some so-called "refactoring"; I moved a
nested class out of its parent, since I wanted it visible on the outside.
I moved it back now and reference it by Parent.Child.<stuff>, which is
just as good, and the error isn't there anymore, but I still don't understand
it. I must have missed some variable renaming or something. Or I was
just plain sloppy. As mentioned I will post a complete snippet with the
error sometime until friday.

Hey everyone,
I, once again, have a problem with an error I can't seem to figure out!
The situation:
- a class, inherited by five other classes;
- the class having a static function which returns one
if its subclasses depending on the input of a string.
Something like this:
class Node
{
static Node parse(ref string s)
{
/* Get value to switch by, an enum. */
auto switchable = /* ... */;
final switch (switchable)
{
case Blah.one: return new OneNode(s);
case Blah.two: return new TwoNode(s);
/* ... */
}
}
}
And I get the mentioned error. I don't understand it:
is it saying I'm using `this' in a static member function
called `parse'? Am I insane; where am I referencing it?
The other classes are in this form:
class OneNode : Node
{
/* ... stuff ... */
this(ref string s)
{
/* Does stuff with `s'. */
}
}
Do you need more information?
Yes; It is extremely hard to solve the problem when there is no code snippet
given which exhibits the problematic behavior in question.
