Re: [Vala] [Announcement] Vala will use GTask for async code instead of GSimpleAsyncResult if --target-glib=2.36 or greater is selected

[Michele Dionisio <michele dionisio gmail com>]

I will test it.

few weeks ago I post bug:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=772084

With patch attached to solve a bug raised calling an sync function
that is not really asyncronous (with vala only is not possible to
create async code that is not asyncronous, but if vala call C code,
like gio, everything can happens)

somone think that is it convinent that I update my patch for the new code?
