I think the problem is when the variable is defined at module scope. It
works inside functions, etc.
Why doesn't it compile?
As a workaround I could do the assignment one element at a time in a
loop. It would be uglier though.
A better workaround is to initialize it in the module constructor:
immutable int[string] lookup;
shared static this()
{
lookup = [ "one":1, "two":2 ];
}
void main()
{
assert("one" in lookup);
}
