          Issue ID: 14387
           Summary: Disallow string literals as assert conditions
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: DMD

          Reporter: schuetzm at gmx.net

void foo(int x) {
        assert("foo");
        static assert("bar");
        if(!isXValid(x))
            assert("x has the invalid value of " ~ x.to!string);
    }

These should be disallowed, because it's too easy to forget the `0` as first
argument. Other expression that are concatenations of string literals should be
kept, of course.
