When using autotools with vala, end-user that only "consumes" application doesn't need to have vala installed, since generated C files are also distributed inside tarball. From user's perspective, distributed vala applications are just normal C applications. This is how normal flow looks like: .-------------------------------------. | .------------. valac .---------. | compiler/linker .-----. | | vala files | -------> | C files | ------------------> | app | | '------------' '---------' | '-----' | | | This is dstributed inside tarball. | '-------------------------------------' Tadej -- Tadej Borovšak 00386 (0)40 613 131 tadeboro.blogspot.com [email protected] [email protected] _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
