[Vala] vala-gen-introspection/vapigen probem

[bsquared <bwcode4u gmail com>]

Hello,

Can anyone help me with this problem?

I followed the instructions on http://live.gnome.org/Vala/Bindings, but
the generated vapi file has incorrect header file name. I corrected the
header file name, but in either case I get a compiler error that the 
header file cannot be found.

I am generating a vapi file from couchdb-glib because the files
referenced on the external bindings page appear to be incorrect.  I also
tried binding to the gir file, but certain methods have introspectable
flags set to zero, which hides the methods. The couchdb-glib project
does not have vapi bindings in the repository. 

I ran the following commands:
  $ echo "/usr/include/couchdb-glib-1.0/"> couchdb-glib-1.0.files
  $ echo "/usr/lib/libcouchdb-glib-1.0.so">> couchdb-glib-1.0.files
  $ echo "Couchdb"> couchdb-glib-1.0.namespace
  $ vala-gen-introspect couchdb-glib-1.0 .
  $ vapigen --library Couchdb-glib-1.0 --pkg json-glib-1.0 couchdb-glib-1.0.gi

The generated annotations for the header file:
  [CCode (cheader_filename = "couchdb-glib-1.0.h")]

The changed the annotations:
  [CCode (cheader_filename = "couchdb-glib.h")]

Test compile:
  valac --vapidir ../vapi --pkg Couchdb-glib-1.0 libcouchtests.vala 
output:
  [...]
  fatal error: couchdb-glib-1.0.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.
or
  [...]
  fatal error: couchdb-glib.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.
