Hi, thanks for the patch. Anyway, you should file a bug with the patch, and
the preferred way of binding libraries now is using GIR not the Vala GI.
Here is a patch to add gtksourceview-3.0 to Vala :

I didn't find GMP vapi anywhere. If i implement it partially (100% mpz,

Use unowned arrays to avoid copies:
unowned uint8[] data = (uint8[]) stmt.column_blob(4);
data.length = whatever...
var copied_data = data; // now you can copy the data
We could use unowned uint8[] in the vapi anyway.
Also, we should report an error when trying to copy an array with no known

So we need to set the data variable length before using the returned
data, and the only way to use the returned data without copying is
marking it as unowned.
Is this correct?
Yes, in this case.

The yield keyword itself doesn't mean coroutine. It's just a generator not a
