Bug 7911 – Nested static if failing to execute

I tried this on the DMD64 D compiler v2.059 on linux. The valid D code at the bottom fails with the following errors when I invoke -------------------- $ rdmd static_if_bug.d static_if_bug.d(15): Error: undefined identifier 'foo' -------------------- Commenting out either "Bug trigger" below results in a successful compilation. -------------------- struct Klass { double value; //static const Klass zero; // Does not trigger bug! static const Klass zero = {0}; // Bug trigger #1 static if (true) // Bug trigger #2 static if (true) Klass foo() { return Klass(); } } void main() { auto a = Klass().foo(); } --------------------

*** Issue 7915 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***

Increased to regression because this code works in 2.058. Workaround: move the definition of foo before the definition of zero. It's a forward reference issue.
