- nothrow this(const(char)*name);
- Construct an identifier from the given name.
- nothrow this(const(char)*name, size_tlength, intvalue);
 nothrow @safe this(const(char)[]name, intvalue);
- Construct an identifier from the given name.Parameters:const(char)* namethe identifier name. There must be '\0' at name[length].size_t lengththe length of name, excluding the terminating '\0'int valueIdentifier value (e.g. Id.unitTest) or TOK.identifier 
- static nothrow IdentifiergenerateId(const(char)[]prefix);
- Generates a new identifier.Parameters:const(char)[] prefixthis will be the prefix of the name of the identifier. For debugging purpose. 
- static nothrow IdentifiergenerateAnonymousId(const(char)[]name);
- Generates a new anonymous identifier.Parameters:const(char)[] namethis will be part of the name of the identifier. For debugging purpose. 
- static nothrow IdentifiergenerateId(const(char)[]prefix, size_tsuffix);
 static nothrow IdentifiergenerateId(const(char)*prefix, size_tlength, size_tsuffix);
- Generates a new identifier.Parameters:const(char)[] prefixthis will be the prefix of the name of the identifier. For debugging purpose. size_t suffixthis will be the suffix of the name of the identifier. This is what makes the identifier unique 
- static nothrow IdentifiergenerateIdWithLoc(stringprefix, Locloc, stringparent= "");
- Generate deterministic named identifier based on a source location, such that the name is consistent across multiple compilations. A new unique name is generated. If the prefix+location is already in the stringtable, an extra suffix is added (starting the count at "1").Parameters:string prefixfirst part of the identifier name. Loc locsource location to use in the identifier name. string parent(optional) extra part to be used in uniqueness check, if (prefix1, loc1) == (prefix2, loc2), but parent1 != parent2, no new name will be generated. Returns:Identifier (inside Identifier.idPool) with deterministic name based on the source location.
- static nothrow IdentifieridPool(scope const(char)*s, uintlen);
- Create an identifier in the string table.
- static nothrow voididPool(scope const(char)[]s, TOKvalue);
- Used for inserting keywords into the string table.Parameters:const(char)[] sstring for keyword TOK valueTOK.xxxx for the keyword 
- static nothrow boolisValidIdentifier(const(char)*str);
 static nothrow @trusted boolisValidIdentifier(const(char)[]str);
- Determine if string is a valid Identifier.Parameters:const(char)* strstring to check Returns:false for invalidExamples:assert(Identifier.isValidIdentifier("tes123_t".ptr)); assert(!Identifier.isValidIdentifier("tes123_^t".ptr)); assert(Identifier.isValidIdentifier("te123s_ğt".ptr)); assert(!Identifier.isValidIdentifier("t^e123s_ğt".ptr));
