Oh, well if there's no change to gir xml, then great.
And yeah, if you could switch shotwell/vala to use gir, it would greatly increase my confidence in the long-term stability of gexiv2 for Python users.
(I haven't kept up to date on the situation, but it used to be that gexiv2 was the only way to access exif data from a Python3 script, so i used to push pretty hard for Python devs to port their scripts to gexiv2)
Hi,For this change I only did one check: Diff the GIR XML before and after the change since it should not introduce any difference (apart from the package)And you are right, vala support does uses "old-style" introspection to generate the API description which should be changed to use GIR in future.Yeah those patches look reasonable to me. I'm far from an automake/autoconf expert though.When you're writing those patches are you testing the introspection from the python side? or just testing that it doesn't break Shotwell? Because Shotwell (as I understand) uses GExiv2 "directly" through vala, while python users rely more heavily on the introspection magic.On Wed, May 4, 2016 at 1:37 AM, Jens Georg <mail jensge org> wrote:
Works fine for me I guess.
I'm the author of the python bits in gexiv2 (and some supporting
introspection bits), feel free to ask me questions but I don't have
much time for hacking these days.
If you can have a quick look at my patches in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765827 that would be great.
Thanks
