Hi all, i just started to play with vala and i find it very interesting and promising project. How can i validate that the string conversion to int has actually happened ? It does not throw any exceptions and it seems to use atoi which returns 0 on failure, which does not say much. Generally if a method fails how does it handle it ? It throws exceptions or uses some global error code ? I read in a previous post that vala only handles glib and friends errors but not normal c library errors although they are used all over.
You can use to_long and do a check on the endptr. -- http://www.debian.org - The Universal Operating System
