I know this doesn't help, but the C preprocessor's # operator does not "return ... value in character format". All it does it converts a macro argument into a string literal: #define STRINGIZE(x) #x int foo = 43; const char *s = STRINGIZE(foo); // s now is "foo", not "43" const char *s1 = STRINGIZE(foo * 15 + 1); // s1 is "foo * 15 + 1" This is exactly what D's .stringof does.
