           Summary: No const folding on asm db,dw, etc
           Product: D
           Version: 0.177
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: clugdbug yahoo.com.au


This code generates the error message "const init" which doesn't make much
sense.
(The "goto end" is only included to make it safe to run).
The same bug applies also to dd, ds, di, dl, de, df
(and to dw, dq, and dt, which are undocumented).
-------
void main()
{
    goto end;
    const byte z = 35;
    asm { db z; }
    end: ;
}
-------
And it would be nice if 
asm { db 1+2; } 
also worked (it currently prints "end of instruction").

 db, ds, di, dl, df, dd, de
 These pseudo ops are for inserting raw data directly into the code.


The only requirement for inserting something "directly into the code" is for it 
to be compile time constant. This feature is especially interesting for 
inserting template generated code.

There are two issues here: that this code fails to compile and that the
mysterious message "const init" is in the compiler's repertoire.  If there's
any really invalid code that triggers this error, it needs to be replaced with
something that makes sense.

I can fix this particular problem (propagating const values), but generalized
expressions for DB, etc., won't be supported until I get around to replacing
the expression parser in the inline assembler with the full D expression
parser.

I'm reopening this since there are 7 dstress bugs which depend on it.
