Hi i just want to discuss two points about D version statements.

1) Why is it not possible to negate the condition of a version statement. I think it is unintuitive and keeps me writing weird statements like:

version(Win32){}else{version = NotWin32;}

2) I would really like the idea to be able to get a compiletime string of version identifiers in some kind of way. Perhaps even an array of version-strings.

Any thoughts on that ?

Try using static if instead:

version (Win32) {
    enum IsWin32 = true;
} else {
    enum IsWin32 = false;
}

static if (IsWin32) {
    // ...
}


static if (!IsWin32) {
    // ...
}
