In c++ it is valid syntax to have trailing commas at the and of enum definitions:
enum {a, b, c, };
This would be a useful addition to D too.

The enum class syntax from c++0x should also adopted by D, this would allow named enums which are not automatically encased by a namespace:

enum EnumName {A, B, C};       ---> A, B and C are global constants
enum class EnumName {A, B, C};---> A, B and C are in the EnumName namespace

I don't think that's necessary, you could simply do:

typedef int EnumName;
enum : EnumName {A, B, C}

And your global scope is happily polluted!


Not any more. typedef will be removed from D2.

Ah hmm, I missed that thread.

That was about the biggest use I had for typedefs, but this case can use aliases just as well.
