Hello Jan,

the line you provided should work without problems. Could you show me the whole file?

So long,

yes, there is; just use the keyword 'const' to designate constants.

Hm ... I tried that, but it didn't seem to work, that's why I asked on the mailing list.

I get the following error:

input.vala:2.12-2.21: error: syntax error, expected `;'
        const int bufferSize = 32;
                  ^^^^^^^^^^
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Without const, everything is working.
 

It might help you to look at the examples at http://live.gnome.org/Vala. Many a question will be answered there. :D

Yeah, I've already read the Tutorial.
