This is nice. What could be done to push vala further in adoption?1. Better support for other C compilers, like MSVC on Windows and Clang. When building library on Windows it doesn't define __declspec(dllexport) in generated headers which means you cannot use Vala with MSVC properly if you want to make an DLL instead of EXE. 2. Vala-DBG which can do something like debugging of CoffeeScript in Chrome is working. I mean something like JavaScript Source Maps but for C - http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/developertools/sourcemaps/
Vala already generate '#line' preprocessor directives if you specify the '--debug' flag. It is used by gdb and gcov to resolve the original sources, meaning that you can debug quite effectively.
3. Package Manager, Vala already has a nice place with lot of nice VAPIs (https://github.com/nemequ/vala-extra-vapis), but better approach to have own package manager with auto-resolving of dependencies (like NPM in Node or Cargo in Rust).
I would really enjoy a source package manager to retreive bindings and external Vala projects. So far, I'm happy with Meson and subprojects.
4. Better integration and maintaining of Vala among most popular IDEs, including MSVC, NetBeans, Eclipse. 5. Transparent usage of C++ libraries via some modified VAPI syntax. There are a lot of useful C++ libraries that people still need/want to use in their project. If you want to keep that library usage exportable for other C files in your project, you always can do *extern "C"* block to avoid mangling. 6. Make some killer-application. Or more precise - library/framework. As for Ruby that was Ruby On Rails, so Vala may have something own even in other direction then Web.
I'm working on it. By the end of the summer we shall have a solid and
stable Web framework capable of taking real load.

That is enough for me. I do a lot of coding in Python - but the complexity of getting the runtime available is a major drag. -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam whitemice org <javascript:;>> GPG D95ED383 OpenGroupware Developer <http://www.opengroupware.us/> _______________________________________________ vala-list mailing list vala-list gnome org <javascript:;> https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list-- Enviado do Gmail para celular _______________________________________________ vala-list mailing list vala-list gnome org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list_______________________________________________ vala-list mailing list vala-list gnome org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list
