Yes. The amount of confusion in this thread is staggering.
I think I have misunderstood about the whole thread then. If the
string isn't determined at run time, then this thing isn't useful for
my purposes, and it's not close to the object-C as I was talking
about, and it's not similar to __getattr__ of Python, etc.

In the syntax
a.b
how would either of a and b be identified at runtime? I mean, you write
the code somewhere and it gets compiled. It's not like you're reading
"a.b" from the console and then call some eval() function against them.

what prevents D from having an eval function?
Sure it is possible. It has zero relevance to the topic at hand.
