[vlc-devel] commit: Remove libvlc_get_vlc_id() ( Rémi Denis-Courmont )

[git version control]

vlc | branch: master | Rémi Denis-Courmont <remi at remlab.net> | Sun Aug  9 18:12:04 2009 +0300| [9963c65db39634725f3d6f22666cb32e6ad7b6d8] | committer: Rémi Denis-Courmont 

Remove libvlc_get_vlc_id()

It did not really work since VLC 0.9. Also, it was meant for use with
vlc_object_get() and the antique VLC_*() functions which are gone.
