As a matter of fact there are many languages you can use gobject in. But it doesn't necessarily feel right because you're supposed to follow the patterns of the language (and naturally also want to do so) but you have to follow GLibs pattern. About ten years earlier i started programming against Gtk in python which was one of the more convenient ways to do so at the time (before i tried coding Gtk in perl and C). Oh boy. It was such a hazzle until I figured out which of the mechanics belonged to python and wich ones belonged to glib and even that there is a difference between python threads and glib threads. Each language brings their own means (stdlib) of interfacing with system functionality and GLib brings it's own. This will allways be confusing in any language that does not follow the same principles as Vala and Genie. I've read that you can use Rust without a standard library. Maybe this will actually make it suitable for GObject code. I know i repeat myself, but i am stoked to see the results. _______________________________________________ vala-list mailing list vala-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list
