Re: [Vala] Rv: C to Vala

[Mario Daniel Ruiz Saavedra <desiderantes rocketmail com>]

valac takes Vala code, analyzes it, and generates C code accordingly. What hinders it from making it the 
other way (taking c code which heavily uses GLib, and turning it into Vala Code)? Also, whould prove 
correctness, as doing Vala to C and then C to Vala should produce similar code.

Mario:

I've just started using Vala, but I think I can take a stab at your questions.

Vala is compiled to C, C is not compiled to Vala. Therefore, I don't
think there would be an easy and automated way to convert C code into
Vala code.

Does that make sense?
