Hello,
I examined the code generated by vala and found a problem.
Vala does an unnecessary g_strdup() call if I return StringBuilder.str as
return value.
For example:
function string get_str() {
var str = new StringBuilder();
str.append("some stuff");
return str.str
}
Ideally this should generate
return g_string_free(str, FALSE);
but currently vala returns something like
result = g_strdup(str.str);
g_string_free(str, TRUE);
return result;
Apparently, this causes a unnecessary strdup() call.
Is it possible to return g_string_free(str, FALSE) instead?
Maybe I missed some ownership transfer thing?
Thanks
