Follow-up Comment #15, patch #5893 (project mc): The fact that you feel that a certain API is useless doesn't make it go away. MC uses glib heavily and that is a fact. If you feel that this is wrong - start a new thread on the mailing list and share your thoughts. As I said below - we don't want to discuss the usefullness of glib here - this discussion is about your patch. For your patch to be consistent with the rest of the code it has to be converted to use glib calls where appropriate.
I am not asking you to learn a whole new API - I am asking you to send a proper patch. You obviously spent some time on MC code - I doubt it that you missed the fact that it used glib. The falsely reported off-by-one bug reported by me has nothing to do with glib. It was my mistake - since I build and test on Solaris where diff is not GNU diff, I quickly changed diff to gdiff without updating the constant which represented the size of the format string. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?5893> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
