[Denemo-devel] use of g_strsplit

[Richard Shann]

this piece of code in device_manager.c is faulty

 gchar **device_path_str = g_strsplit(path_string,":",2);
     device_number = atoi(device_path_str[0]);
     if (device_path_str[1]){
        port_number = atoi(device_path_str[1]);
        if(!rename_jack_midi_port(device_number, port_number, new_name))
          gtk_tree_store_set (treestore, &iter, 0, new_name, -1);
     } else {
        g_debug("can't change device name yet");
     }

  g_free(device_path_str);

you would need to use a special function to free the array
device_path_str - it's an array of strings. Instead of all this, just
use

gchar * g_strrstr (const gchar *haystack, const gchar *needle);

with haystack = path_string and
with needle=":" this will give you a pointer into the path_string
pointing to the ':' character so you can do aoi(that pointer +1)
(well, if these are completely unchecked strings you are dealing with
then g_strrstr_len () would be better).
