[ruby-gnome2-devel-en] array arguments to boxed constructors

[<jc...@gm...>]

Hello everyone,

I have a boxed type with a constructor declared like this:

/**
 * vips_array_int_new:
 * @array: (array length=n): array of int
 * @n: number of ints
 *
 * Allocate a new array of ints and copy @array into it. Free with
 * vips_area_unref().
 *
 * See also: #VipsArea.
 *
 * Returns: (transfer full): A new #VipsArrayInt.
 */
VipsArrayInt *
vips_array_int_new( const int *array, int n )
{}

Code here:

https://github.com/jcupitt/libvips/blob/master/libvips/iofuncs/type.c#L649

Is it possible to create one of these things from Ruby? I'm getting a
NotImplementedError if I do the obvious thing:

irb(main):015:0> Vips::ArrayInt.new [1,2,3]
NotImplementedError: TODO: Ruby -> GIArgument(array)[gint32]

This is using git master.
