Re: [Vala] Getting results from an async callback

[Matthias Klumpp <matthias tenstral net>]

Hi!
You recieve a AsyncResult in that callback. For examples how to use
PackageKit in Vala, see my Listaller[1] project or - for a
less-complex example (Listaller uses some internal PK APIs) - just
checkout this snipped which addresses your question:

(from Light Software Center)
