Hello Jiří
Thanks! It works fine with pointers. just like in C. I just there was a
possibility to avoid them in vala because I have to manage them
manually.
But it's also fine this way.
Another question:
Is there some trick to cast the read data back to utf-8? Otherwise the
content of the file is unreadable in some parts (For example if I write
your name to the file :) )?
Regards
Jörn
