Hello,
This patch changes the Parrot_get_runtime_prefix API from
char* Parrot_get_runtime_prefix(Interp *interp, STRING **prefix_str)
to
STRING* Parrot_get_runtime_prefix (Interp *interp ) {
This is done to make the routine safer, it no longer can leak memory. Also the
useless "." paths
are removed from src/library.c. some minor changes to
Parrot_locate_runtime_file_str are present
to sync and correct that function.
other callers in src/inter_misc.c , and compilers/imcc/main.c are fixed as well.
also a case of a bare free() being used instead of the proper mem_sys_free is
fixed.
This relies on #42944 to apply.
Cheers,
Mike Mattie - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
