I've come accross with the following:

test.d
-------------8<------------------

module test;

static private import testAA: AA;
static private import std.cstream: dout;

int main(char[][] args)
{
    dout.writeLine(AA.text);
    return 0;
}

-------------8<------------------



testA.d
-------------8<------------------

module testA;

class A
{
private:
    static const char[] text = "text";
}

-------------8<------------------



testAA.d
-------------8<------------------

module testAA;

static private import testA: A;

class AA : A
{
}

-------------8<------------------


Running the program the output is: "text"


I don't know what would be the correct behaviour, but I presume that a 
private member (even if it's static) can't be accessed either from outside,
neither from a subclass. Am I wrong?

Regards,
David

Looks like good old bug 314 to me:

This is funny. I tried it out with pure imports wihtout any qualifiers. I
got the same result. So summerising the problem: if a private member
qualified as static or const (or both), it won't remain private after
import. And as far as I can judge the import qualifier doesn't matter.

So the problem is surely related to 314, but it may introduce some new
aspects.

Though this has nothing to do with your question, this is not valid 
code. A selective import cannot also be a static import. When you say:

import std.stdio : writefln;

Then the only symbol which is inserted into the module's namespace is 
'writefln' (and not 'std'). Putting 'static' in front of this import 
causes the compiler to give this error:

test.d(1): static import std cannot have an import bind list

Hi Kirk,

tnank you for pointing this out. I will correct it. Nevertheless the code
compiles with dmd-1.20 under linux.
