Is there a way to bypass the file and line into D assert function ?

No, not as far as I know. But you can throw an `AssertError` explicitly, 
which is what `assert` does when it fails. This allows to pass the file 
and line information [1]. Or call `onAssertError` which if called first, 
when an `assert` fails [2].
