dmd.dinterpret

The entry point for CTFE.

Specification ($LINK2 https://dlang.org/spec/function.html#interpretation, Compile Time Function Execution (CTFE))

Authors:

Source dinterpret.d

Expression ctfeInterpret(Expression e);
Entry point for CTFE. A compile-time result is required. Give an error if not possible.
e must be semantically valid expression. In other words, it should not contain any ErrorExps in it. But, CTFE interpretation will cross over functions and may invoke a function that contains ErrorStatement in its body. If that, the "CTFE failed because of previous errors" error is raised.
T ctfeEmplaceExp(T : Expression, Args...)(Args args);
Allocate an Expression in the ctfe region.
Parameters:
T type of Expression to allocate
Args args arguments to Expression's constructor
Returns:
allocated Expression
void incArrayAllocs();
