no. version declarations only apply to the module in which they are 
declared.

so you can't use a module as a config.h in that way

besides what's wrong with passing them on the commandline?


If you really want to go that way, you could use static if's to achieve 
something similar I guess.

config.d
========

const char[] myVersion = "someVer";

some.d
======

static if( myVersion == "someVer" )
{ // someVer
}
else	// bail
	static assert(0);
