[xine-devel] Bug in aaui

[Darwin O'C. <rea...@ya...>]

I've been posting xine to OS/2. With 1.alpha0 I've started fresh. I've 
decided to skip over dealing with <insert adjective here> autoconf and 
I've been creating my own makefile. Things have been going quite well.

I've been working with the aaui and I believe I have found a bug related 
to how it handles the configuration file code.

In the config_update update function in aaui/main.c when type is 
XINE_CONFIG_TYPE_STRING it replaces entry->str_value with the new value 
and then frees the old str_value when is calles "free(oldv)".

Lator it calls xine_config_update_entry which eventually called 
xine_config_update_string in xine-engine/configfile.c where it also 
frees the string value when it calles "free (entry->str_value);" Freeing 
the same things twice is not good.

I was running into this problem because I was overriding the audio 
driver to force it to use the OS/2 spacific DART driver I had created.

After commenting out the free in config_update it seemed to fix the problem.
