How to move an associative array between modules?

2018-01-11 Thread WhatMeWorry via Digitalmars-d-learn
I've built a sound.d module with lots data types, free functions (initAndOpenSound() loadSound()), and enums etc. In my main/app.d module, I've created the the following associative array: void main(string[] argv) { initAndOpenSound(); Track[string] tracks = [ "SCRATCH"

Is there a way to get this associative array initialization to work?
