XLISTBOX_MAX_STR on List items (signature gslc_ElemXListboxGetItem)

[dirkx]

Feature Request or Enhancement

We currently have a fairly short XLISTBOX_MAX_STR (20 chars) used (only) within gslc_ElemXListboxDraw of the text string of the label gotten via gslc_ElemXListboxGetItem() that is often a lot smaller than the natural width of the list box (around 48 chars).

It may be an option to change the signature of gslc_ElemXListboxGetItem - to have it pass a pointer rather than copy the content of the string into a new buffer. So that gslc_ElemXListboxDraw() does not have to declare a XLISTBOX_MAX_STR buffer. (And the generated code to declare a char acTxt;[MAX_STR + 1]).

bool gslc_ElemXListboxGetItem(gslc_tsGui* pGui, gslc_tsElemRef* pElemRef, int16_t nItemCurSel, char**pStrItemPtr

Or alternatively - retire it and rely on gslc_ElemXListboxGetItemAddr or something similar instead.
