Revision 6487b499943b3a014abf4239dac0a0119793fcb3 authored by Filip Roséen on 09 March 2016, 11:50:02 UTC, committed by Jean-Baptiste Kempf on 09 March 2016, 11:57:59 UTC
The two overloads of EbmlParser::reconstruct has been added due to the
fact that there are _a lot_ of places in the code following the below:

    delete ep;
    ep = new EbmlParser (a, b, c, b);

The above will, unless the compiler feels cocky and optimizes it to what
is included in this patch. First free the memory used, and then allocate
new memory for a new EbmlParser.

Instead of doing what is effectively a reallocation, this patch
introduces EbmlParser::reconstruct which will reconstruct the object
in-place (without actually having to reallocate the underlying storage).

README for the VLC media player
===============================

VLC is a popular libre and open source media player and multimedia engine,
used by a large number of individuals, professionals, companies and
institutions. Using open source technologies and libraries, VLC has been
ported to most computing platforms, including GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X,
BSD, iOS and Android.
VLC can play most multimedia files, discs, streams, allows playback from
devices, and is able to convert to or stream in various formats.
The VideoLAN project was started at the university École Centrale Paris who
relicensed VLC under the GPLv2 license in February 2001. Since then, VLC has
been downloaded close to one billion times.
