Has anyone written (in D, or something compilable to D like enki bnf) a 
D expression evaluator?  Even a parser?

For clarity, what I'm looking for is something that parses and evaluates 
D expressions like (a && foo(b))

This is related to my other post about a unittest helper module, since 
this is one component that would fulfill like 90% of the work for that 
project.

Apparently Don has something close in BLADE that works at compile time, 
though I don't know what source files do the parsing or how to use it 
for simply evaluating expressions rather than codegen.

Any help would be appreciated.

On http://apaged.mainia.de/ you'll find an example grammar that does 
simple expression evaluation.

the examples are very simplistic, but the D grammar from seatd has 
complete expression support: http://seatd.mainia.de/
it doesn't evaluate them yet, though.

At present, my code doesn't cope with function calls, so it won't do what you
want.
