 Hi,




 class Foo

 	void reset()
 	{

 		foreach(i, x;  tmp.tupleof)

 }
 
 The problem is that I have to avoid
 to try to set const values and static arrays.
 
 How can this be done?


 Does "this = new typeof(this);" work?
 


No, it does have no effect.

Btw.: that's the error message I get from dmd:
Error: can only initialize const member y inside constructor
Error: cannot assign to static array this.buffer
