Unfortunately, this is done on a per-type basis, and virtually everyone passes struct timeval as a pointer so that's what the bindings assume. Before seeing this function, I don't know that I've ever seen it passed as anything but a pointer. AFAIK the only way to do this would be to create a local binding for struct timeval (in the redis vapi) with a [SimpleType] annotation on it, and have redis use that type instead of the one in glib-2.0. FWIW it might be possible to add an annotation to allow for passing a non-SimpleType struct as a value. I don't spend much time in the compiler, but I believe a small change to valaccodemethodcallmodule.vala would do the trick. -Evan
