Subject: Bug 584453 - Handle char ** correctly (and const variation)
X-Git-Tag: GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_0_6_3~19
X-Git-Url: http://git.roojs.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b23ca1ec2afeed3c5ab914c996c1dd73870ecab6;p=gnome.gobject-introspection

Bug 584453 - Handle char ** correctly (and const variation)

This patch fixes our default handling of char **.  We add Return
node types as a case where we test for array handling.

Remove the hardcoded assumption of array = "no transfer", just
use the separate Parameter/Return cases.  This change causes
inout char ** to be transfer="full", but that seems more correct.
