Re: [Vala] Newbie need help

I do not want to say anything bad about vala !!!!

I startet at "Vala for C# Programmers" and everything looks very easy at first glance.

But .. Did any of you ever look at monodevelop? Api/autocomplete/debugging/etc. everything runs out of the 
box... 

How do you get a C# developer to use vala???
C# DEVELOPERS DO NOT USE COMMANDLINE TOOLS !!!!!

[sarcasm] DO YOU HAVE A CAR WITH POWER STEERING [sarcasm]

I do not even know all the parameters of the C# compiler, because I do not need to know.
I must know C# and gtk-sharp api, that's the importand thing...

Maybe that's why a cant use is.

The 'vala-team' is anyone using Vala. It is a community driven open source project.
This discussion has brought out some really useful tips from developers using Vala,
but there has already been significant work in this area. For example (with a nice screenshot):
https://blogs.gnome.org/chergert/2017/11/11/code-indexing-in-builder/
That was backed by work done through Google Summer of Code:
https://anoopchandu.wordpress.com/2017/08/24/code-search-for-gnome-builder-final-report/

Things could always be improved and in the Vala world that means developers fixing and improving
their tools with the support of the rest of us by reviewing code and maintaining projects. Anyone using
Vala needs to understand that development model.
