introspection woes (2)

[Lloyd Dupont]

Interesting... I think I understand...
Thanks! :)

However an other problem arise with getMembers() it always returns null!
Looking at the code it seems (from my beginner's perspective) that 
getMembers() rely on the member field (function) xgetMembers which is always 
null, as far as I can tell (didn't see any assignment...)

Anyway of ... making the runtime update xgetMembers?

Looks like getMembers() returns 'const MemberInfo' but name() is not
declared as const. That's likely a bug in druntime, but as a workaround
you can try this:

==================
writefln("%s . %s", ci.name, (cast(MemberInfo)mi).name());
