Re: [Vala] Static local variable

[pancake <pancake youterm com>]

in short: 'static' in vala have different meaning than in C.

If you want to do this use a field from the container object of the 
given class.

In order to do this (C-like static) we should define a new keyword like 
'permanent', but
it just make things look wrong. And it's out of the design principles of 
Vala.
