Hi there.

This question actually is more about than GObjectIntrospection than
about Vala, but maybe someone can help or direct me to a better place
to ask.

I write a library in Vala that i want to expose through GObject
Introspection. No i want to expose a class that uses generics. (For
testing purposes i fiddled around with Gee.ArrayList)

In Vala i would do something like


using Gee;

var list = new Gee.ArrayList<int>();


In Python i tried

from gi.repository import Gee

list = Gee.ArrayList()


but it fails with an error.

How do i use generics from other languages and where could i ask about
that?

Yours, Grindhold.
