There is a problem with static constructors: It seems as prepending this()
directly with static will run the constructor correctly; with an enclosing
static{ this() } the constructor will not be run:


import std.stdio;

class C1
{
  static
  {
    this()
    {
      writefln("C1 static ctor");
    }
  }
}

class C2
{
  static this()
  {
    writefln("C2 static ctor");
  }
}

int main()
{
  return 0;
}


Executing this prog will give me only "C2 static ctor", but not both, as it should! I'm using Linux DMD version 0.114;

greetings,

I thought the "static{ this... }" behavior was documented somewhere.
