=================

Write your next library in [Vala][Vala] and get bindings for free!

Here is example how to use functions and objects from vala

in your favorite language.

## Why Vala?

 - Vala is [very][VBench] [fast][VBenchNew]

 - Vala manages memory for you

 - Write in Vala, (re)use from any

   [%lang%](https://live.gnome.org/GObjectIntrospection/Users)

## Setup Vala

### Debian/Ubuntu

    sudo apt-get install valac gobject-introspection libgirepository1.0-dev

### Fedora

    sudo yum install vala gobject-introspection-devel

### OSX

    brew install vala gobject-introspection

## Make shared library

Source file for shared library is `object.vala`.

Run in shell:

    make

You should get `vala-object.so` and `ValaObject-0.1.typelib` and

some other files. `.so` and `.typelib` are required for next examples.

If you want more details - read about

[GObject Introspection](https://live.gnome.org/GObjectIntrospection/) and it's

[architecture](https://live.gnome.org/GObjectIntrospection/Architecture).

Otherwise just skip to next step :)
