What would be the best ('canonical') way of translating it to D?

I'm not too hot at Java, but I'm pretty sure this gives you what 
you want. Perhaps "immutable" instead of "enum" would be closer 
to what Java does with enum members, but I don't know.

struct LineStyle
{
    enum NONE = "None";
    enum SOLID = "Solid";
    enum DASH = "Dash";
    enum DOT = "Dot";
    enum DASHDOT = "Dash Dot";
    enum DASHDOTDOT = "Dash Dot Dot";

    string label;

    private this(string label)
    {
        this.label = label;
    }
}
