No you have to add the vapi to the engine. Afrodite just parse and build
the codedom it doesn't know anything about the project structure.

In vala-toys another library, vbf (vala build framework), is used to
parse the project structure.

Anyway when you have the vapi file name, you can use the
Afrodite.Utils.get_package_paths to get real full path and the vapi
dependecies.

I think that is a bug in the completionengine object desctructor.

I'm sorry but there isn't such documentation ;) All we have is the
afrodite source code and vala compiler source code.

So feel free to ask, you can also find me on the vala irc channel I'm
sejerpz.
