Hi,
I'm not able to compile following code:

import std.stdio;

// print string->[string->string]
void printer(ref string[string][string] input) {
  foreach (k, ref v; input) {
    writeln(k,":");
    foreach (ki, vi ; v) {
      writeln("\t", ki, "->", vi);
    }
  }

}

int main()
{
  writeln();

  alias string[string][string] sss;

  // works fine
  sss dyn;
  dyn["one"] = ["a":"A", "b":"B"];
  dyn["two"] = ["c":"C", "d":"D"];

  printer(dyn);

  // fails during compilation
  sss stat = [
              "one" : ["a":"A", "b":"B"],
              "two" : ["d":"D", "e":"E"],
             ];

  printer(stat);

  return 0;
}
