Vala

Compiling Vala applications

Meson has experimental support for compiling Vala programs. A skeleton Vala file looks like this.

project('valaprog', 'vala')

glib = dependency('glib-2.0')
gobject = dependency('gobject-2.0')

executable('valaprog', 'prog.vala',
           dependencies : [glib, gobject])

You must always specify glib and gobject as dependencies, because all Vala applications use them.
