Maxime Chevalier:
I'd like to be able to increment a variable each time I evaluate my code generation function in the mixin statement. This is so I can generate a unique id number for each data structure. Is there any way to do this? Could I increment a CTFE global somehow, or use something like C's static local variables?
CTFE allows you to use only locally pure code. So you can't modify globals or other static mutables.
I have several times suggested to add to D something similar to the Gensym you see in CommonLisp.
But maybe you are able to keep a local counter inside the function that calls the functions that generate the strings.
