I disagree. I am not familiar with C# so I can't comment on that, but Vala very nicely reflects the beauty of the GObject system. Especially in C it is easy to miss that because of the very tedious syntax you need to use, e.g. to define an derived class. In Vala the syntax is very concise. Regarding the fact that it compiles to C, as long as I have an automatic build system, what do I care what it compiles to? But most other high language bindings to Gtk are just as easy to use (e.g. Python, Lua, or Haskell).

Unless it's Pascal dialect has changed completely since my TurboPascal days, it is still a language that is inferior to e.g. Python or Vala. Don't know what you mean by "not having to design the GUI". If you want it to look in a certain way you have to specify that. > >> >> Regards, >> Dov >> > > Ido > >> >> On Thu, Jul 19, 2012 at 12:29 PM, yochai <yoc...@titat.info> wrote: >> >>> Shlomi, >>> >>> I gave it as an idea as I understood he doesn't need a full GUI or >>> anything with a shiny look but to print a lot of data very fast. >>> >>> I'm sorry if I miss-understood anything. >>> >>> Yochai >>> >>> On 07/19/2012 12:12 PM, Shlomi Fish wrote: >>> > Hi all, >>> > >>> > On Thu, Jul 19, 2012 at 12:02 PM, yochai <yoc...@titat.info> wrote: >>> >> Sorry, I thought it will be clear what I'm speaking about. >>> >> >>> >> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_DirectMedia_Layer >>> >> >>> > >>> > I would recommend against SDL, because creating a decent GUI with it >>> > will require a lot of work, and on top of it will give you a giant >>> > window of raw graphics in the screen, which isn't very user-friendly >>> > or impressive.
