Re: [Vala] Properties == GObject properties?

[Simon Kågedal Reimer <skagedal gmail com>]

Oh, interesting! I updated the page, hope this is correct:

https://wiki.gnome.org/action/info/Vala/Tutorial?action=diff&rev2=242&rev1=241

I also noticed that doing this as a top-level function, i.e naming a
function outside any class or namespace something beginning with a
digit, generates faulty C code. This should be reported as a valac
bug, right? What would be the least surprising behavior, that valac
renames the function (adding some prefix) or to disallow this?  Same
thing with keywords, this passes valac:

void @if () {
}
