I think Vala is missing some minor features related to type declarations
(such as structs and enums) that both C and C++ have and are really
useful.
For example, if you are to declare a single struct in C or C++, you can
just do:
---
struct {
int id;
float mass;
} Object;

To get some of these tricks to work it would be helpful to be able to pass the
C type underlying the vala type as a macro parameter.
I've a bug with patches that does this using typeof() to emit the C typesymbol
but it doesn't meet Juerg's syntax expactations.
As interfacing with c macros is
I don't see the benefit of these forms versus
struct Object {
int id;
float mass;
}
respectively
enum Process {
CONSTRUCT,
RUN,
DESTROY
}
or did you miss that these are available?
Oh, I totally missed that! I thought those were typedef kind of

I think you wanted to define a variable of an anonymous struct/enum type

we will probably use that syntax in Genie as thats what Delphi does as
well although i may just use:
Flags
flag1
flag2
etc
