gnome-config vectors

[Juan Antonio Ramirez Morell <thanatos amadeus uprm edu>]

I'm having trouble setting these creatures.
The _gnome_config_set_vector() function (which I am accessing through the
wrapper macros) receives as a third argument a "const char const
argv[]".  How do I send anything besides a static, compile-time-defined,
string array? That is:

...

const char const blah[] = { "foo", "bar" };
...
gnome_config_set_vector("appcfg/section/key",2,blah);

That'll work... but if I want to construct the array in run-time, it won't
work.  Or rather, it will, but it generates warnings when compiling
(either that I'm discarding "const" if I declare the array as const, or
incompatible pointer type if I don't declare it as const).

Any ideas? And why was that argument made so strict?
