[Vala] Equivalent of Console.Clear() / Console.ReadKey()
Hi, I am porting glines (Five or more) in gnome-games to vala. To test the logic I wrote a small cli interface to drive the game model. The keypad arrows are used to move the cursor and 5 to do a click. I use stdin.getc() and that kind of works but I am annoyed that I need to press enter after each keypress. I would also like to clear the console each time I print the new board state. In c#/.net I would use Console.ReadKey() and Console.Clear() to achieve that. Is there something equivalent in vala that I can use? Cli code is here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-games/tree/glines/src/glines-view-cli.vala?h=glines-vala - Thomas ___ vala-list mailing list vala-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list
Re: [Vala] Using vala, libgda, and waf
Hi, في ح، 10-06-2012 عند 00:22 -0400 ، كتب Steven Oliver: I have a very very simple pet project I'm writing and I want to integrate some storage in a DB using libgda or GnomeDB (not real sure what it's official name is now). I've pasted the basics of the top of my wscript file. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get waf to recognize libgda. I'm still on Fedora 15 so I only have up to libgda-4.0, which is fine, because if I can't get it to work having 5 won't help me any. I've tried several different opts.load statements in the below code including libgda, libgda4, libgda-4.0. Does anyone know what the right statement is??? (This has actually nothing to do with vala, it's really a waf question.) Anyway, you need to use conf.check_cfg like it is done for glib, something like: conf.check_cfg(package = 'libgda-4.0', uselib_store = 'GDA', mandatory = True, args = '--cflags --libs') and use GDA in the uselib for your application.

HTH, Abderrahim That has done the trick. Thank you very much! I will have to read up more on what exactly conf.check_cfg and opts.load do in waf. ___ vala-list mailing list vala-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list
