I want to create a global immutable associative array and have
it be accessible from anywhere at compile-time. How can I do
that?
With:
immutable int[int] aa = [1:2,3:4];
I get:
source/thing.d(1): Error: non-constant expression [1:2, 3:4]
And with:
immutable int[int] aa;
static this(){
aa = [1:2,3:4];
}
int c = aa[3];
I get:
source/thing.d(7): Error: static variable aa cannot be read at
compile time
Also associative arrays don't seem to have a .idup
Is there any other way to do this?
Is an enum not appropriate? Because it can be used to push
constants and available at ctfe.
enum int[int] aa = [1: 2, 3: 4];
pragma(msg, aa);
