So i want bitfields for just a little bit. but i dont want its

seem to work on gdc. :(
struct Color_t {
static if(__ctfe){
import std.bitmanip:bitfields;
}
mixin(bitfields!(
uint, "R", 8,
uint, "G", 8,
uint, "B", 8,
uint, "A", 8));
}
__ctfe is a runtime construct, not compile-time. It cannot be
used with static if. More over, it's only available *inside* a
function that is currently being executed in a compile-time
context. It has no role outside of that.
What problem are you trying to solve here? I mean, what is the
problem with whatever dependencies std.bitmanip:bitfields has
that makes you only want to import it during compilation?
