Even that I've pushed a fix to your problem.

Libgda-4.2 now compiles under GObject-Introspection 1.36. Remains lot of warnings you may could help to fix, because means to add a colon (":") at the end of the line of function name or event.

May be we need to disable GI by default in 4.2?

 Hi Andrea,

Yes this is a problem with resent GObject Introspection. I've managed to
fix the same problem for libgda-5.0.4 version.

Exists interest in libgda-4.0? This is important to know if is better to
work on that banch.

Is it more stable than 5.0?

i often develop under gnu/linux and then i compile under windows (i prefer
to compile under windows instead of cross compile...)

i still develop with 4.2.x because 5.x depends on gtk 3 and gtk 3 under
windows, that i know, isn't yet stable (i'll try asap new version)

Are you using GTK+ widgets on GDA for your applications or just libgda?

yes i use some widgets

[...]

Why are you using resent version of GObject Introspection? AFAIK is better
to use version released at the time GDA 4.2 was in order to avoid conflicts
like the one you've found.

i'm using what i find in the distro

If you aren't using GObject Introspection and GDA-UI (Gtk+ widgets) at all,
may you can use following switches:

./configure --without-ui --disable-gda-gi --disable-gdaui-gi

They allows you to compile without that dependencies.

ok i tried with --disable-*-gi and it seems to work


at the same time i'm trying the gtk3 and libgda5 status under win... and it seems a good state ;-)


thanks a lot

 LibGDA-5.0.x is included in Debian Wheezy, I'm working to fix most of bugs

reported against GObject Introspection and Vala bindings.

Upcoming LibGDA-5.2 have lot of fixes on GObject Introspection and Vala
bindings, make it more usable for other languages.

Do I need to backport them?
