Vala translate your cast to a get_<type> function of your value. ex: Value v = "toto"; var val = (string)v; //equals to 'var val = v.get_string();'
so (Value)my_val is impossible because GLib.Value doesn't have a get_value function. 2015-01-29 15:16 GMT+01:00 Guillaume Poirier-Morency < guillaumepoiriermore...@gmail.com>: > I am working on Valum, a web micro-framework written in Vala > https://github.com/antono/valum > > valac is generating very strange code that doesn't compile. > > Part of the framework is about offering facilities to push arbitrary > values into CTPL template environment. > > At some point, I try to case a Value? to a non-null Value (I have of > course tested the null case, I just want it to pass under > --enable-experimental-non-null) > > vala --version > > Vala 0.26.1 > > Here's the use case: > > Value? v; > var val = (Value) v; > > The error: > > > lvalue required as unary '&' operand > > I attached the full log and the bug is easily reproducible (the sample > does it). > > -- > Guillaume Poirier-Morency <guillaumepoiriermore...@gmail.com> > > _______________________________________________ > vala-list mailing list > vala-list@gnome.org > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list > > _______________________________________________ vala-list mailing list vala-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list
