[vlc-devel] [PATCH] free type: do not cache some variables

[David Fuhrmann]

Hi,

In the macosx interface, we want to change some variables of the freetype plugin on-the-fly. As the current implementation is broken for that, Remi suggested to not cache the relevant variables, but directly get them from config on the fly.

First patch reverts Felix first implementation, second patch implements the new approach.
I know that this does not the best solution, in terms of both readability and performance. But I do not see any better way for the near future to fix this bug.

Comments welcome.

With best regards.
