I'm trying use classes in my project, but when i'm try inherit class, I get error:

    Error: import `Server.Console` is used as a type

Server.d:

    module Server;

    import std.string;
    import core.sys.windows.windows;
    import Console;

    class Server : Console {
        this(HANDLE hIn, HANDLE hOut) {
            super(hIn, hOut);
        }

        ~this() {
            // Delete object;
        }
    }

Console.d:

    module Console;

    import std.string;
    import core.sys.windows.windows;

    class Console {
        public:
            HANDLE hIn;
            HANDLE hOut;

        this(HANDLE hIn, HANDLE hOut) {
            this.hIn = hIn;
            this.hOut = hOut;
        }
    }

What does it mean?

[...]

Don't name the module the same thing as the class.  Rename it to, say, `console`, so that it wouldn't clash with the class name `Console`.
