           Summary: Cannot create a static array with the length of a const
                    static array in function scope
           Product: D
           Version: 1.012
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: diagnostic, rejects-valid
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: deewiant gmail.com


(Set version to 1.012: there's no 1.013 yet.)

void main() {
        const int[2] foo;
        int[foo.length] bar;
}

Compiling the above results in the error "Error: no property 'length' for type
'int'". No module or line information, hence the "diagnostic" keyword on this
bug.

Move the code outside of function scope and/or remove the const from "foo" and
the code compiles.

Also, replacing foo.length with mixin("foo.length") works, which is odd.

The line number bug was fixed between 1.030 and 1.036.
Removing 'diagnostic' from the warning. Works on D2.
(Actually, I think the bug is that D1 allows you create a const array with no
initializer).
