Is there a way to embed a glade file into a binary?

enum fileContent = import(file);

fileContent is a static array of ubyte.
the compiler must know the path to "file" via -J"dir/subdir"

I've just tried that, but i get an error message with the xml 
file content, and this at the end:

This is part of the application code:

import modelo, extra;

enum fileContent = import("vista.glade");

     int test_val = 3;

     //this(){ } // constructor

     void init_ui(){
         Builder g = new Builder();
         g.addFromFile(fileContent);

         window = cast(Window)g.getObject("Win_01");

 This is part of the application code:

 enum fileContent = import("vista.glade");

 [...]

         g.addFromFile(fileContent);

         window = cast(Window)g.getObject("Win_01");

     // More code here ...
 }

addFromFile expects the *name* of the file. Because you already 
have the *contents* of the file, you should change method. Maybe 
addFromString is the correct one, but I'm not sure.

"g.addFromString(fileContent);"

It works now. Thanks Lodovico and llmp!
