Description Frederik Sdun 2009-10-13 12:47:25 UTC 
If you compile a DBus interface into a library, the interfaces methods are not in the header file, which leads to compile errors. I attached a small example.

command for compilation:
valac --header=pc.h --library=pc --vapi=pc.vapi --pkg=dbus-glib-1 --pkg=gio-2.0 -C pc.vala

updated testcase


it's not because it's dbus interface, it's because the method is async

to compile use:

valac  --header=async_iface.h async_interface.vala  --pkg=gio-2.0 -C
