Hi: Finally I found the library "keybinder". It doesn't work no wayland, but at least allows me to do what I need in X. But now I have a problem: the VAPI file isn't available in my system, so I'm adding it manually. But here comes the odd thing: if I specify the VAPI file in the command line, it doesn't compile: valac -C captura.vala --pkg=gtk+-3.0 --pkg=keybinder-3.0 keybinder-3.0.vapi error: Package `keybinder-3.0' not found in specified Vala API directories or GObject-Introspection GIR directories Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s) But if I just set a "vapidir" with the folder that contains the .vapi file, everything works fine. valac -C captura.vala --pkg=gtk+-3.0 --pkg=keybinder-3.0 -- vapidir=. But with other projects, just adding the .vapi files worked fine (like the Autovala plugin for Gedit or Scratch, or a plugin for GnomeBuilder that I'm writing). In both cases the libraries are available system- wide. So... why does this happen? And what is the difference between just specifying a .vapi file or putting a --vapidir parameter?
Don't provide both the full path to the vapi and a --pkg argument (with --vapidir if necessary). Use one or the other. That said, I can't actually reproduce this; I just get a bunch of errors about all the symbols having already been declared (since valac tries to load the same vapi twice). Maybe you're running an older version of valac, or those aren't really the commands you're using? -Evan
