 Also sets a callback, but uses a static method or plain function as
 callback. The optional C<data> argument will be stored in the watcher's
 C<data> member and is free for you to use.
 
+The prototype of the C<function> must be C<void (*)(ev::TYPE &w, int)>.

 See the method-C<set> above for more details.
 
+Example:

 =item w->set (struct ev_loop *)
 
 Associates a different C<struct ev_loop> with this watcher. You can only
