Hey all,
Vala currently uses g_simple_async_result_* for implementing async functions and methods, which is causing a lot of deprecated warnings when compiling against current GLib. There are currently patches porting it to use GTask in Bug 763345[0], however there's an corner case that needs addressing somehow: Vala allows async functions to be executed when there is no main loop running - see comments 11-13 of that bug.
So, per Carlos's comment #13, can we get some advice from GLib developers about whether they would be interested in supporting the use of GTask without a main loop running?
Thanks! //Mike [0] - <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=763345> -- ⊨ Michael Gratton, Percept Wrangler. ⚙ <http://mjog.vee.net/> _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
