That should have been noted in the original thread. shared static this is required to initialize static immutables. Simple reason -- a static immutable is shared between all threads, so you shouldn't be initializing shared static data in every thread that gets created. And we get? No CTFE with static immutable AA? Right, CFTE cannot access static immutable AA that are initialized at runtime. But you can access the enum. e.g. (yes it's horrid): enum sorted = Qwezzz.qazMap.keys.sort(); It would be really cool to make AA's at CTFE change into runtime AAs when used at runtime, and be accessible as compile-time AAs otherwise. -Steve

The problem is that the code for AA consists of runtime hooks. So in practice even if your keys and values are available the compiler doesn't know how to build it and use it. At some point what could be done is a kind of serialization at compile time and facilities for quick deser at runtime from the data segment but that doesn't change the fact that they could still not be used for CTFE or template metaprog.

Hello,
Why this doesn't work?
import std;
struct Qwezzz
{
shared static this()
{
qaz = qazMap;
}
enum qazMap = ["rrr": "vv", "hty": "4ft6"];
static immutable string[string] qaz;
}
void main()
{
enum sorted = Qwezzz.qaz.keys.sort();
}
The variable "qaz" is static immutable and doesn't work in CTFE.
There 3 issues here:
1. "shared static this()" is a runtime construct.
2. You can't initialize a static AA right now
https://dlang.org/spec/hash-map.html#static_initialization
Only "aa = null;" works.
3. CT and RT AA internals are different.
But you can get a workaround, more info
