You comment the source as “ValueArray is treated as Array”.  
And your convertion functions seems to convert GValueArray ↔   
Array(Ruby)

Then, the code below needless?  
G\_DEF\_CLASS(G\_TYPE\_VALUE\_ARRAY, “ValueArray”, mGLib);

If we don’t use GLib::ValueArray from Ruby side, we shouldn’t define it.

Correct that code is useless. It’s basically copied it from the  
rbgobj\_strv.c 🙂

Ah, it’s my mistake.

I removed both and applied your patch to CVS.

Thanks.
