Hi,

Maybe interesting for the readers of this list

The waf build system is an alternative to autotools but is much easier
to use and to understand. Anyway if you want to learn more about it
you can read it on the homepage [1]

I've just added initial vala support to the waf build system. See the
demo in SVN trunk [2]. For now it's only possible to build programs
(not libraries) and everything in compiled straight away on one valac
command line.

Is the correct way to build vala programs the following?

run valac to produce .c and .h file
run gcc to make object files
run gcc to do linking

make dist should only contian C sources


I would argue that make dist should contain the vala sources as well.
Why hide them?

If anybody is also interested in extending the vala capabilities of
waf feel free to contact me
