If anyone is interested, the updated code that uses Gee is using Gee; public static void main(string[] args) { ArrayList<string>? al= new ArrayList<string>(str_equal); al.add("this"); al.add("is"); al.add("a"); al.add("test"); //remove the test al.remove("test"); foreach(string word in al) { stdout.printf("%s ", word ); } stdout.printf("\n"); } _______________________________________________ Vala-list mailing list Vala-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list
