Anything we can do about that or just give in and leaving FdSet a full
class?
            

use memset ?
        

Heh, right. Will you try to get the patch into the respective c
libraries?
      

I thought we were talking about vapi files. Something like

[Compact]
     public class FdSet
     {
         [CCode (cheader_filename = "string.h")]
         public void zero () {
           memset(this, 0, sizeof(this));
         }

But I suppose you could also call FD_ZERO from the body too...
    

Oh amazing! It didn't occur to me that vala code is allowed in vapi files :)
  

Juergbi has it define a static function in each C file that uses it, but *I* think it should define a C macro in the header file... I know just saying that made Juergbu feel sick...
