that's why I did Eina_Value_Array, to show case how to do it. (and because I'll use it in my next commits). It's also very optimized, an array of chars have COUNT bytes only, not 16 * COUNT. The list would be very similar. For hash and structure it is also similar, you can do like I did for Eina_Value_Array, there are the eina_value_array_* functions that takes an integer, you can take a const void* key. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
