Description Jürg Billeter 2008-05-10 14:09:55 UTC 
The [NoArrayLength] is specific to the C Code / GObject backend and should therefore be changed to [CCode (array_length = false)], which is in line with the [CCode (array_length_pos)] attribute.

While [NoArrayLength] currently applies to a method with all its parameters and the return type, [CCode (array_length = false)] should only apply to a specific parameter / return type, just like [CCode (array_length_pos)].
