Hmm, but looking at the docs, this seems to be strange:
Fl_Preferences::Fl_Preferences(
const char * path,
const char * vendor,
const char * application

"The file name is generated in the form
$(path)/$(application).prefs." [...]
The argument 'vendor' is not mentioned in the docs (file name).
This looks wrong but I can't check this now.
That is strange indeed but not wrong, in the sense that it matches what
is in the source code.
The path of the file reached by this Fl_Preferences constructor is defined
at line #938 of src/Fl_Preferences.cxx :
snprintf(filename, sizeof(filename), "%s/%s.prefs", path, application);
This statement is in a member function which receives path, vendor and
application
parameters, but the "vendor" parameter is not used to build the filename.
Okay, thanks for your research.
This should be checked then:
- is it "correct" (*intended* to be) w/o vendor?
- backwards compatibility with 1.3 ?
- other constructors and paths ?
If it turns out to be wrong and someone has a quick fix, I'd be glad to
read about it here and/or see a commit.
Otherwise we could open a GitHub issue so this will not be forgotten.
Sorry, I'm too busy with other stuff to pursue this myself but didn't
want it to get lost in the noise...
