Thanks Frederik that explains why you can't pass a fixed size array as a parameter.Vala supports two types of arrays: 1) dynamically heap-allocated arrays: Vala, Java, C#: int[] a = new int[5]; C++: int* a = new int[5]; C: int* a = malloc (5 * sizeof (int)); 2) inline/stack-allocated fixed-size arrays: Vala: int a[5]; C++: int a[5]; C: int a[5]; Java: not supported C#: unsafe { int* a = stackalloc int[5]; } @pancake: 'new' combined with the latter type of array does not make sense, since the 'new' keyword stands for dynamic alloation on the heap. The Vala compiler should refuse to compile something like 'int a[] = new int[5]'. So it's obviously a bug._______________________________________________ vala-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list
