• Piotr Mitana (15/15) Feb 16 2018 Hello,
• Anonymouse (4/19) Feb 16 2018 getSymbolsByUDA seems to have some visibility thing going on.
• bauss (2/17) Feb 16 2018 It's definitely a bug!

Hello,

The code below:

================
import std.traits;

enum Attr;

class MyClass
{
     private  Attr int a;
     static assert(getSymbolsByUDA!(typeof(this), MyClass).length 
== 1);
}
================

does not compile as static assertion fails. Making the filed a 
public makes it compile properly. Should I file a bug or is by 
design?

getSymbolsByUDA seems to have some visibility thing going on. 
Related to https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17973 
perhaps? Though that only gives deprecation warnings, not errors.
