Hello list,
I stumbled on some (for me) unexpected behaviour when setting and
getting a property at the same time, which is not consistend with simple
types like int.
When doing something like
int x = (myclass.myproperty = y);

I think that it is pretty consistent and expected behaviour not only in
Vala but in other languages as well (as long as they allow such things). I
would be worried if it would work other way around. Example:
int x, y;
x = 2;
y = x = 3;
I expect that both y and x will have same value, 3. I would n
