Re: [Vala] PanelApplet example

[Quikee <quikee gmail com>]

I am also trying to create an example panel applet in vala but have
not succeeded. The example looks like this:

panel.vala

using GLib;
using Panel;


public class MainApplet : GLib.Object {

        public static bool panelFactory(Applet applet, string iid, pointer userData) {
                var button = new Gtk.Button();
                applet.add(button);
                applet.show_all();
                return false;
        }
        
        public static int main (string[] args) {
                return Applet.factory_main("OAFIID:Vala_Applet_Factory",
typeof(Panel.Applet), MainApplet.panelFactory, "1.0");
        }
}

panel.server

<oaf_info>

        <oaf_server iid="OAFIID:Vala_Applet_Factory" type="exe"
location="/home/quikee/projects/panel">
                <oaf_attribute name="repo_ids" type="stringv">
                        <item value="IDL:Bonobo/GenericFactory:1.0"/>

                </oaf_attribute>
                <oaf_attribute name="name" type="string" value="Vala Panel Example"/>
                <oaf_attribute name="description" type="string" value="Vala Panel Example"/>
        </oaf_server>

        <oaf_server iid="OAFIID:Vala_Applet" type="factory"
location="OAFIID:Vala_Applet_Factory">
                <oaf_attribute name="repo_ids" type="stringv">
                        <item value="IDL:GNOME/Vertigo/PanelAppletShell:1.0"/>
                        <item value="IDL:Bonobo/Control:1.0"/>
                        <item value="IDL:Bonobo/Unknown:1.0"/>
                </oaf_attribute>
                <oaf_attribute name="name" type="string" value="Vala Panel Example"/>
                <oaf_attribute name="description" type="string" value="Vala Panel Example"/>
                <oaf_attribute name="panel:category" type="string" value="Utility"/>
                <oaf_attribute name="panel:icon" type="string" value="computer.png"/>
        </oaf_server>

</oaf_info>

The example just seg. faults if it is executed. Any ideas what might be wrong?

Best regards,
