[Vala] Vala autoconf macro

2008-08-19 Thread Michael Terry
Hello, all! I recently rewrote a little puzzle game [1] I maintain into Vala from C++. I'm a big fan of Vala, so thanks! The app is called gmult, and emulates the mpuz game found in emacs. I'm writing this list because I thought I'd share one of the packaging tricks I used. I copied most of th

A fact: I can't start a class from GTypeInstance in vala 0.3.5, Vala will try to use GTypeInstanceClass as the c class name whereas GTypeClass should be used. and in glib-2.0.vapi TypeInstance is labelled as deprecated. Yu On Thu, 2008-08-07 at 14:16 +0100, Sam Liddicott wrote: > Hi Juan, > >

Hi!, I agree that autotools is a difficult and obscure system that works by dark magic. Unfortunately, autotools does work everywhere, not just in most places, which is why it gets my vote. Besides, autotools is the defacto build system for G* things, so i think vala should use it. /*GNOM

You just shot your argument when you said nobody cares about max length of command line argument. Some people and systems do, autoconf works where wafs doesn't. I'm not going to learn wafs and you seem to show it is less complete than autoconf :-) I vote for autoconf anyway. Sam -Or
