Is D capable of accessing the filesystem at compile time, for instance, to
load and parse an XML DOM, or some other structural metadata, which may be
used to generate the associative struct and its members?
I can think of many other uses for the technology too. It seems extremely
powerful, and I'm
Only with `enum xmldata = import(file.xml);`, but you have to pass
the -J switch and a directory path for the location of the file. E.g.:
module test;
enum xmldata = import(file.xml);
void parse(string data)() { }
void main() {
parse!(xmldata)();
}
$ dmd -J. test.d
. is short for the
Rather short docs since it's a simple feature:

Be careful, though, the import expression (understandably) expects a
compile-time string, which means that you can't directly use it from
CTFE (e.g. to open additional files included by the IDL file you are
parsing), but instead have to go back to compile-time land and then pass
the contents

I just wanna freakin' look at it, but build a legitimate magical

Maybe. I never digged that deep into build processes. After some time I
got myself to write Makefiles, but that's about it. I see names like
automake, m4, configure etc. pop up now and then and have no idea what
role each
configure scripts are usually part of the automake build system which used
to be the standard on linux maybe 5 years ago I think it went out of favour
roughly the same time as cvs.
