Is there a Linux distribution in which vtg (vala tools for gedit) works
out-of the box ?
In other words, is there a version of Linux which provides Vala, vtg as
ready-to install packages ?
I am asking this question because, if on one hand quite easy to install
Vala from source under Linux, on the other hand it often seems problematic
to get a matching set of versions of Gnome, Gedit, Gedit plugins (aimed at
Vala development, such as Valencia, vtg, etc ...) in order to build a
coherent Vala envelopment environment.
Alternatively: Does anybody know which Linux disto is used by the
developer(s) of VTG ?
Thanks,
Serge.

Hi all!
i wrote a class extending a Gtk.Dialog, on my constructor i use
"this.vbox" to put the widgets, until this comom,
but when i compile i've got a warning "assignment from incompatible pointer
type", i wonder this is because the
Dialog is no initialized at this point, even the program working i's like
to go away with the message, in python i
must call the parent init before can go on like this:
Dialog.__init__(self)
how do i make this in vala?

In Vala you don't need to do this (and cannot), it is done for you when
you compile.
I would not worry too much about warnings, however if it is causing a
problem,please reply to this with the code you use, and the problem that
you have.

Why do you need xml for the server?

Well it makes sense when you want to implement server interface specs
like e.g. MPRIS2 to save you from the dull task to write the interface
in vala by hand.

Ideally you want to code to the interface, not the other way around.
That's why dbus-binding-tool and qdbusxml2cpp can generate the server-side
code as well as the client-side code. I also worry that a Vala change
could end up affecting the interface in some subtle way that could result
in hard to track down bugs.
But there's another hurdle here as well -- if I write the server without a
formal interface, how do I generate the XML?

Hi,
In Vala, if I allocate resource in static construct block, where can I

static ~Foo () { }
Hi,
I'm very interested about that. But when I tried that solution, valac
wrote an error:
error: static destructors are only supported for dynamic types
What is 'dynamic types' ?
And how I'm supposed to use this code ?
Thanks.
