I have been experimenting with libdmapsharing and Vala. What I have found is that there are some symbol name changes to libdmapsharing that would facilitate the use of libdmapsharing from Vala. For example, libdmapsharing uses "TYPE_DMAP_DB," where the GObject convention is actually "DMAP_TYPE_DB."
I'd like to make these changes to libdmapsharing, but they will break source compatibility with Rhythmbox. I am happy to commit the required changes to Rhyhmbox Git. Would the primary Rhythmbox developers object if I made these changes? My plan is to bump libdmapsharing's API version and ensure rhythmbox requires this version in order to build the DAAP plugin. Unlike last time there was a version bump, these changes should be very simple and I expect the process to go smoothly. Somewhat related, I would be interested in hearing if anyone is interested in writing Vala code that makes use of libdmapsharing. Any feedback would help ensure that the changes to libdmapsharing are sufficiently comprehensive (and mitigate the risk of having to change again). Libdmapsharing master (GNOME Git) now has a test application called "dpapview." -- Mike :wq _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
