Re: [Vala] Release testing

["Samuel Cormier-Iijima" <sciyoshi gmail com>]

This used to work before and now gives an error:

int main(string[] args) {
    size_t x = 3;

    string[] arr = new string[x];

    return 0;
}

Compilation fails with the following errors:

test.vala:4.30-4.30: error: _expression_ of integer type expected
    string[] array = new string[x];
                                ^
test.vala:4.11-4.31: error: _expression_ type not allowed as initializer
    string[] array = new string[x];
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Compilation failed: 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Cheers,

Hi all,

I'm planning to release Vala 0.5.2 on Monday evening. As there have been
a lot of changes since 0.5.1, I'd appreciate it if people working on
Vala applications or libraries can do a test run with Vala trunk, so we
can fix regressions before the release.

No incompatible changes in the language have been introduced, however,
more checks have been added. The most noteworthy new check is probably
that the compiler now enforces local variables to be initialized before
being used.

I've uploaded a source tarball[1] to make testing easier in case you
haven't installed 0.5.1 yet.

Regards,
Jürg
