Re: libseed-list seed - GVariant /GDBus

Thanks, as always :-)

perhaps I've been not able to read the doc properly:

http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/stable/glib-GVariant.html#g-variant-new-string

how should that look like for an array:

var a = new GLib.Variant.string("string a")
var b = new GLib.Variant.string("string b")

new GLib.Variant.array(GLib.Variant.TYPE_STRING, [a,b], 2)

at least this is how I would read the docs:

http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/stable/glib-GVariant.html#g-variant-new-array
