Good C coding practices does not allow to use alloca or dynamically stack
allocated arrays because alloca does not specifies what happens when you
allocate -1 bytes (or somewhat bigger than the stack assigned to the running
thread.
I wrote a stackbased allocator which performs 3 times faster th

Should I open a bug? or there's somebody already looking at this issue?

Vala supports two types of arrays:
1) dynamically heap-allocated arrays
My opinion matter not, but it makes more sense to me to force the ' type[]
name = new type[] ' syntax.
Not only does it make more phonetic sense, but it also eliminates ambiguity
when using the 'var name = new type[]' syntax. (If the other syntax were
allowed, would var name[] = new type[] be corr
Hey,
Coming from a C++ background I first tried typeHere nameHere[]; too.
I noticed that newer languages seemed to have type[] name; configuration
(Java, C# etc).
I'm not part of the Vala team though, so I dont know the "official" status!

I have noticed that if you declare an array in a wrong way you get
errors from the C compiler
instead of handling it at vala level.
should this syntax be supported? or we should just throw an error?
Here's the test case:
$ cat a.vala
#!/usr/bin/vala
void main () {
// uint8[] foo = new
11 matches
