Re: [vdr] AttachFilter need's a ref not an Object

Hello Today I tryed to play with vdr filters. After reading the PLUGIN.html I found a Problem.

Example out of the Howto: cMyFilter Filter; cDevice::ActualDevice()->AttachFilter(Filter);

The Problem is that AttachFilter(...) needs a Ref not an Object. So I made cMyFilter Filter; cDevice::ActualDevice()->AttachFilter(&Filter);

That is not very nice.

After a look at the VDR/pat.c I decide to use this piece of code:

Filter = new cMyFilter(); cDevice::ActualDevice()->AttachFilter(Filter);

Im not secure if I need to delete the Filter or if the cDevece handel it.

Maybe Klaus can fix this in the next howto.

You're right, this is a typo in PLUGINS.html. Thanks for reporting.
