Re: [Vala] GLib.Object.get_type() static?

This method returns an object type but if it is not registered, by convention, it does. Just check C generated for a GObject. For libraries, some times, you need to register objects in the type system before call some method, just check libgda's gda_init() at line 152:

[Vala] GLib.Object.get_type() static?

Why in gobject-2.0.vapi GLib.Object.get_type () is an instant method? This method should be declared as static, because some times a library requires to register a type on initialization to aviod errors at runtime. ___ vala-list mailing list
