Oops...I made a tiny mistake. Please see the corrected version below:

I have an external variable declared like this:

struct
ControlID
{
	uint			signature;
	int				id;
};
extern extern (C) const ControlID kHIViewWindowContentID;

But when I am able to write code like this without complaint from the compiler
(GDC 0.21/DMD 1.00):

kHIViewWindowContentID.signature = 123;

I'd like to prevent that. Is such a thing possible?

TIA,
Rick
