I had a set of default error messages to go with error code
numbers, and did something along the lines of:
string[uint] error_text = [
400: "A message",
401: "A different message"

and got "expression .... is not a constant"
I eventually found this discussion:

I understand that it's problematic, but a message which makes
it clearer that compile-time initialization of global AA's are
not supported? Because it cost me about a half hour trying to
figure out what I was doing wrong.
(My workaround was to initialize the data structure once during
app startup.)
Based on what I understood and that issue, I think it was fixed:
import std.stdio;
string[uint] aa1 = [1:"ABC",2:"DEF"];
void main(){
auto aa2 = ['A':1,'B':2];
writeln(aa1[1]);
writeln(aa1[2]);
writeln(aa2['A']);
writeln(aa2['B']);
}
Prints:
ABC
DEF
1
2
Matheus.
