Oh thanks! I had forgot that I should declarate it's in class.
But what about return type? Look like that DMD want that I declarate some bool value in constructor. It's get me next error: "Error: need 'this' for 'isConfigExist' of type 'bool()'"

Methods that can be called without any specific instance ("this") must be declared static too.

'Config` defines a class, which is a type. Normally you want to create an instance of the type (object of the class) before using it and each object has new set of variables.

When you declare variable static it makes it shared between all instances of that class, allowing to use it without any specific instance. When you declare method as static you say to compiler that it is not going to use any non-static fields of the class (normally available via "this" pointer) and make it possible to call it as `Config.method`.
