• monarch_dodra (2/13) Jan 22 2014 It's a bug. "ä" is a valid identifier.

Hi,
When I try to define an Enum with an umlaut like ä
	
enum test2 {
	l,
	ä

I get  Error: basic type expected, not "\u00e4"
and     Error: type only allowed if anonymous enum and no enum 
type

is there any workaround for this ?

enum ä {ä = "ä"}
does not work in dpaste but suddenly it works on my local 
enviorment (Windows-Mono-d,dmd 2.064.2)
