Dear friends, I read this mail just now. This is the reason why raster ask me about progress of my work. :P Speaking of automatic binding generation, I already have a VAPI generator (named as Eolian_Vala) based on Eo. It creates VAPI files with compact classes, but developers who have knowledge

Hi Mickey, I actually picked up from you the maintenance of efvala for some time, but I eventually gave up as at that time API breaks alone took more time than the amount I had available to work on this. It's been a long time since I last used/worked on these bindings, so my memory is not that

Sorry for resurrecting such an old thread, but I just became aware of it. In case you didn’t know, me and some colleagues did quite a lot of work on EFL bindings about 8 years ago. We came to a point where the bindings were usable for some – small – apps, in particular integrating into the glib

Dear friends, I'm a big fan of vala (if you don't know what vala is, please see this link ), and writing a vala binding generator for EFL. Vala has a syntax similar to C# and has managed feature based on reference counting, but basically it just converts
