Hello.

I have dub dependency which has a `shared static this()`.

In my project, can I run code code before the dependency's `shared static this()`?

"Static constructors within a module are executed in the lexical order in which they appear. All the static constructors for modules that are directly or indirectly imported are executed before the static constructors for the importer."

This might work:

pragma(crt_constructor)
extern(C)
void early_init()
{
}

Keep in mind that the D runtime is not full initialized at this point.
