Hi all,
In the spirit of the previous discussions about using C99 and C++ in Geany code with similar subject lines, I'd like to take a poll/discussion for allowing the use of Vala for new/re-written Geany code. The pros and cons likely will be slightly biased since I would obviously like to use Vala in Geany, but here they are anyway:
I'm undecided: on the one hand I would love if we could use Vala for new Gobject-related and OOP code, but on the other hand Geany is full of non-gobject code and Vala is still young, not widespread and un-standardized.
I'm not against going the Vala route but I guess my uncertainty counts as a no.
Perhaps we should first make it easier to write plugins in Vala (heck, merge some bindings already) and see how it plays out.
Best regards.
