Description Maciej (Matthew) Piechotka 2008-08-04 19:46:47 UTC 
Support for virtual functions in interfaces - which are allowed by GObject system as far as I remember - in Vala would be nice.
Comment 1 Maciej (Matthew) Piechotka 2009-07-30 19:23:13 UTC 
Virtual functions in interfaces allows also to define additional methods (which can be defined in terms of others - possibly inefficient) without breaking API.
