Do you me that you want the inner block to execute unconditionally? If so, when I remove the "if" it still doesn't work. I wish I knew enough C++ to know, but are the next two lines in the appropriate order?
g_free(command); command = temp;
Sorry, I was unclear. No, just remove all the code in that if. Probably and easy way to do that is change it to "if (false &&" which will make it always fail, but not require many changes.
Those are the in right order because the code is doing a swap. I think this example might help:
command -> "bob is here" temp -> NULL
g_strdup_printf
command -> "bob is here" temp -> "bob is here now"
g_free
command -> NULL temp -> "bob is here now"
assignment
command -> temp -> "bob is here now"
So, at the end of the if, command points to a string with " now" added at the end of it, and the memory that was previously used by command, has been returned on the stack.
Thanks for looking into this.
