Is there a terminal tool to automatically generate autoconf/automake makefiles for a Vala project?

I am trying to create a Vala project to see how i like developing with the language as a possible replacement for Mono. I think that the automake stuff can be used to generate a project template with all the necessary files (sans my .vala code). Any help would be appreciated.

There's a sample skeleton Vala project called Sampala. You can clone it and start from there.

Vala Toys for GEdit includes a tool called vala-gen-project. Give it a try!

Download the source code for the Vala compiler and look at 'configure.ac' and 'Makefile.am' in each subdirectory. Vala itself is the canonical example of how to build a Vala project.

Automake just recently added support for Vala. To find out more about it check out Automake's notes.
