A correct D2 program that defines a global immutable array of enum members:


enum MyEnum { first, second }
immutable MyEnum[] array = [MyEnum.first,MyEnum.second,MyEnum.second,
                            MyEnum.first,MyEnum.second,MyEnum.second];
void main() {}


To reduce the noise I'd like to use with() at global scope too (there is no
need to call is "static with"):


enum MyEnum { first, second }
with (MyEnum) {
    immutable MyEnum[] array = [first,second,second,first,second,second];
}
void main() {}


with is useful for global structs too.

This is a workaround, but I try to avoid static this where possible to avoid circular reference import troubles:


enum MyEnum { first, second }
immutable MyEnum[] array;
static this() {
    with (MyEnum)
        array = [first,second,second,first,second,second];
}
void main() {}
