I would like to do something like
`
dmd --buildversion=fooCollection{"a", "b", "c"} -run app.d

...

void bar()
{
    static foreach(i; fooCollection)
    {
        ...
    }
}
`

The idea being that bar can be packed in a library and the program that includes this library can decide what parameters will be added to foo whitout any runtime overhead and ugly looking syntax.

Is something simular possible?
If not, could I achieve thesame result by including a file `programsettings.d` with some compile time constants in there whitout my library depending on it?

The normal way to do this would be to make bar a template and have the program that uses it pass these parameters to it as template arguments.

Why didn't I think of that?
It's just initializing a library, of course!
Thank you for your help and happy coding.
