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();
