I just committed a bunch of work on the comment interfaces in libvorbis.
Importantly, there is now a way to deal with non-0-terminated strings being
returned in the comment structure.
THe vorbis_comment struct has an additional member - int *comment_lengths.
Unless you're editing the struct directly (i.e. not using
vorbis_comment_add(),
etc.), no changes will be needed to applications (but this WILL break binary
compatibility with shared libraries, I think.)
Additionally, two extra calls were added: vorbis_comment_add_tag() and
vorbis_comment_query(). These give a nicer interface to the 'tag'
system.
vorbis_comment_add_tag() is basically the same as vorbis_comment_add(), except
it takes a tag and the contents. vorbis_comment_query() searches for the given
tag, and returns the nth instance (one of the arguments) of this tag -
usually,
you'll want this to be zero.
None of the interfaces for SETTING comments currently support non-0-terminated
data. If anyone would find this useful, I'll add appropriate calls. Let me
know.
