The following function have the following C signature:

                                                         ...);

but in vapi is:

public bool set_holder_value (string holder_id) throws GLib.Error;

How can I change update it?

This method is specific because it expects the last argument to be of the correct GdaHolder's type (ie. gchar * for G_TYPE_STRING, gint for G_TYPE_INT, ...). And this is not correctly handled by the automatic toole such as vapigen of GObjectIntrospection generator (as a matter of fact this method is excluded from introspection).

So I suggest that you don't use this method at all from Vala, but do it yourself like:

holder = gda_set_get_holder (...)

value = ...

gda_holder_set_value (holder, value)

free (value)
