Thank you very much for your work, it is very useful for those who want to
use VALA and carry our programs to Windows.
I'll download it now.
Congratulations and keep going.

For async to work properly, you must run the GLib MainLoop. MainLoop is where
your async closure for test_function.begin() is called. It's where all
callbacks are scheduled, actually.
The only reason this works is that in the case of DO_YIELD you stash the
test_function.callback and then

Yes, you are right: I created a main loop, called run(), and the
callback got called.
Anyway, I don't understand why is not possible to ensure that the end
callback gets called even without a main loop :?
Thanks!

It would take me a bit of time to explain async (I've thought about blogging
about it), but the short answer is: Vala's async and yield keywords are
designed to use MainLoop to schedule code execution.
You don't *have* to use them to do asynchronous work, but they are certainly
convenient.

I've been watching the source code generated by Vala and the key is here:
_data_-result = 1;
if (_data_-_state_ == 0) {
g_simple_async_result_complete_in_idle (_data_-_async_result);
} else {
I think you would need to work with the Vala team to get something like this
landed. Part of the solution might be to look at the other back-ends that Vala
supports (i.e. Posix), although I think those are kept in a separate branch and
not supported in the main distribution.
However, I
