My code is as following:

struct Point {
        float x, y, z ;
};

int main ()
{
        Point[3] pts = [
                {1.0, 0.0, 0.0} ,
                {0.0, 1.0, 0.0} ,
                {0.0, 0.0, 1.0}
        ];

        return 0 ;
}

But, the compiler report "Error: array initializers as expressions are not
allowed".

Then, how do I initialize an array of struct ?

That message's pretty messed up: array initializers look like [1.0, 0.0, 
0.0] in D.

Replacing the middle lines with these works:
                 Point(1.0, 0.0, 0.0) ,
                 Point(0.0, 1.0, 0.0) ,
                 Point(0.0, 0.0, 1.0)

Move the definition out of main (note that ; after the struct isn't required):

struct Point {
    float x, y, z;
}

Point[3] pts = [{1.0, 0.0, 0.0},
                {0.0, 1.0, 0.0},
                {0.0, 0.0, 1.0}];

void main () {}

Bye,

The fact that *does* compile just makes the error message all the more 
crazy...

It should compile inside of main if declared static.  It's just the 
error message that's a bit off.
