I would recommend you using autotools to build your projects/apps. It can seem a bit more difficult to set up at start, but once you are done and your project is useful and has more features, you and other people will thank you for using autotools ;) If you are interested, you can reuse the configure.in and Makefile.am files from a Vala+efl project I have: https://code.google.com/p/emtooth/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fapp2 You can find the bb recipe to use as base here too: http://cgit.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/tree/recipes/openmoko-3rdparty/emtooth2_svn.bb Hope it will be useful! -- Pau Espin Pedrol mail/jabber: [email protected] http://blog.espeweb.net
