.TH VALAC "1" "March 2017" "valac 0.36.0" "User Commands"
.SH NAME
valac \- compiler that translates Vala source code into C source and header files
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B valac
[\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fIFILE\fR]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
Vala is a programming language that aims to bring modern
programming language features to GNOME developers without imposing any
additional runtime requirements and without using a different ABI
compared to applications and libraries written in C.
.TP
valac, the Vala compiler, is a self-hosting compiler that translates
Vala source code into C source and header files. It uses the GObject
type system to create classes and interfaces declared in the Vala
source code.
