I'm making some changes to a pvr addon and have run into an issue.

If I add a setting, I get a kodi restart when the add on initializes and attempts to read the new parameter (which doesn't exist yet...)

I've added code to read/reset the parameter in client.cpp added it to the resource/settings.xml and the us_en strings.po file, but I'm still getting a reset.

Is this procedure documented somewhere?  I see 'CAddonSettings' in the debug log when it's trying to read, and resets, yet when I search this forum for that string, it tells me there's no posts.

Thanks!

Can you link to the code your using.

Just had to double check some of my assumptions. I have problems with pulling directly into a std:: string using getSettings exported from CHelper_libXBMC_addon. Ive had to use a char[] as the return value, and then set my std:: string to match that if the return value was not "".

Link to your code, and that will give people a chance to see whats happening.

ba-zinga.  That's just the clue-by-4 I needed.  Thank you!
