EXAMPLES

63       After compilation, the following command  generates  a  GI  for  pango:
64       vala-gen-introspect pango packages/pango
65
66       This can then be converted to a Vala API as follows:
67              vapigen   --pkg   cairo   --vapidir   .  --library  pango  pack‐
68              ages/pango/pango.gi
