Peace be upon you all,
I'm new to Vala programming language and I have well experience in Java & PHP
programming languages using OOP , honestly I'm little bit concerned about list
of issues I hope you can help me to reach the right direction as listed below :
1) How can I list installed packages to compile my code "pango , cairo ,
gtk+-2.0 ..etc" and where are they installed (I'm using ubuntu 9.10) ?
2) I have never developed applications with programming languages that use
pointers !! so in Vala where to start to understand pointers and to keep my
applications safe from memory leaks ?
3) Using pointers in Vala is it a must ?
4) Where should I start to know more about using binding libraries ?
5) What version of unicode does Vala support ?
6) owned, unowned, and weak modifiers I do not know how can I use them &
why ?
finally , I have developed a simple snippet to demonstrate how to use Google
AJAX API in Vala but I did not use any thread in my code so I'm forced to use
"--thread" to run my code perfectly I do not know why ?
You can find my snippet here

OS : Ubuntu 9.10
Vala version : 0.7.8
Best regards,
Emad Al-Bloushi
