1. How to make a connection between signal_handler_event() and my
check_button1?
The same way you do:
check_button1.toggled.connect(() => { check_button1.label = "I'm toggled!" });
You can write:
check_button1.button_press_event.connect(signal_handler_event);
Please see this example in the Vala tutorial.
An alternative is:
check_button1.button_press_event.connect(
(chk, e) {
if (e.type == EventButton.2BUTTON_PRESS) {
label.label = "Ouch!";
}
return false;
});
Do you see the imagination? I truly just copy&paste.
Actually, I just removed the parameter types.

Add "using Gdk;" line in the first lines of your code.
When ever you see this error, suspect if you use all the needed
namespaces.
You see? This is what I meant experience is the best teacher.

Very good. I think it should be added into Vala wiki.
