[Vala] How to re-use external C function with pointer

[Olivier Duchateau <duchateau olivier gmail com>]

Hi,

I find this code in Vala program [1]. But under FreeBSD, prctl() doesn't exist.

So I use setproctitle(3) [2] (see attachment), but I get this error message:

/usr/ports/x11-toolkits/granite/work/granite-0.2/lib/Application.vala:95.67-95.6
7: error: syntax error, expected `)'
            protected extern static void setproctitle (const char *fmt);
                                                                  ^
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
*** Error code 1
