Description Jerry Quinn 2010-01-07 21:42:09 UTC 
Dmd allows declaring something like

const(int) a = 3;

However, the grammar cannot parse this as written.

The () can't be parsed.

http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/arrays.html#strings is the first example of this syntax in the docs with immutable(char)[].
