Re: [Vala] Vala: JACK Audio Binding

[Harry Van Haaren <harryhaaren gmail com>]

Cheers for the reply & the commit!

Its a help anyway, I was at 12 errors, now down to 6 errors. (+ 5 warnings).
All the errors seem to be of the same kind. (Something due to accessing
array[2] ?)

I've never written a .vapi and dont really understand all the fancy tricks
you do...
So best job is probably to post the error output after running the command..

command: valac --pkg jack main.vala   // my main.vala is just a single
printf statement, no JACK code

jack.vapi:48.36-48.44: error: syntax error, no expression allowed between
array brackets
        public int get_aliases(ref string[2] aliases);
                                   ^^^^^^^^^
