FldSetTextPtr(fldP, "Y");
will always be safe. The reason is that constant strings are stored either:
in global space
or:
pc-relative (after the function).
In either case, they'll remain where they were. There's no need to call
FldDelete or FldInsert.
The problem would be if you did something like:
foo()
{
char myStringOnStack[] = "abcde";
FldSetTextPtr(fldP, myStringOnStack);
}
Since myStringOnStack is on the stack, it goes away when foo exits.
So, yes, the pointer you pass to FldSetTextPtr is saved in the field, but if
it's a string constant, it's OK, cause it ain't going anywhere.
