I became curious reading this thread so I had a look -- apparently the answer is in the code. From src/plcore.c:
... void plgDevs( const char ***p_menustr, const char ***p_devname, int *p_ndev ) { plgdevlst( *p_menustr, *p_devname, p_ndev, -1 ); } static void plgdevlst( const char **p_menustr, const char **p_devname, int *p_ndev, int type ) { ... The pointers are dereferenced by the API calls to the implementing routine, so are not needed. I probably meant to go back & fix that up eventually but ended up forgetting all about it. :) -- Maurice LeBrun ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shape the Mobile Experience: Free Subscription Software experts and developers: Be at the forefront of tech innovation.
