Synopsis

Do you want to boost your productivity? Are you interested in a programming language that combines the efficiency of a scripting language with the performance of a compiled language? Did you always want to write GTK+ or GNOME programs, but hate C with a passion? Read this book and learn Vala! This book is an introduction into the Vala programming language. Targeted at people with basic programming experience in any imperative programming language, you will learn about syntax, semantics, and idioms. Starting from Hello World up to graphical user interfaces using GTK+, covering DBus interprocess communication, network programming, Linux specifics, and more. Learn how to leverage external libraries and enhance Vala by writing bindings to new libraries. The author has discovered Vala in 2007 and has been developing middleware using Vala and contributing to Vala since then.
