Re: [Vala] sqlite needs more love

[pancake <pancake youterm com>]

Oh I see .. the NoArrayLength attribute :)

I have pushed your example into the wiki:

  http://live.gnome.org/Vala/SqliteSample

one lil question...is there any doc about all the available (or at least the
most used) attributes?

We should probably put the documentation into the wiki, instead of a static
page (http://www.vala-project.org/doc/vala/)

Thanks
