I'd assumed that would pick up the file and line at the point of declaration... I think that it works that way in C/C++, but it doesn't work that way in D. Actually, I had to point it out to Andrei at one point after he pointed out that it wouldn't work when I did it in some code he was reviewing. But I've tested it, and it definitely works. - Jonathan M Davis
