Initializing "two-dimensional" compile-time enum

[Philippe Sigaud]

Geez, I just spent 15' trying to make this work! AA + Compile-time are
like oil and water.

You can use CTFE and an initializing function. It's a bit cumbersome,
but it works.

module main;

import std.stdio;

string[int][string] initializePohod()
{
    string[int][string] result;
    result["vid"] = [ 3: "skiing", 5: "rafting", 7: "jumping" ];
    result["ks"] = [ 1: "first", 2: "second", 3: "third" ];
    result["prepare"] = [ 1:"planning", 3:"preparing", 5:"complete" ];
    return result;
}

enum string[int][string] pohodEnumValues = initializePohod();

void main()
{
        writeln(pohodEnumValues);
        pragma(msg, pohodEnumValues); // there, accessible during compilation.
}
