POPUP_OPTION copies the name it is given -- `this->name = *newName` into a
std::wstring member -- but its constructor took a std::wstring*, so 64 call
sites spelled the argument `&std::wstring( pStr )`. Taking the address of a
temporary is ill-formed, and clang refuses it outright:
error: taking the address of a temporary object of type 'std::wstring'
It happens to work under MSVC because the temporary outlives the call, dying
at the end of the full expression rather than before the copy. Nothing was
corrupt; the code was just spelling "pass me a string" in a way the language
does not allow.
A const reference says what these functions actually want, so the call sites
lose the &, and the two places that allocated a string purely to have an
address to pass -- POPUP_SUB_POPUP_OPTION's default constructor, which carried
a "TODO: possible memmory leak!" saying as much, and a "Dummy generator"
option -- stop leaking one.
Converted: POPUP_OPTION's constructor and setName, POPUP::addOption and
addSubMenuOption, and both POPUP_SUB_POPUP_OPTION constructors. The popupDef
family in popup_definition.* keeps its std::wstring* because it owns what it
is handed and stores the pointer; that is a different design and a different
change. The three calls it makes into the converted API now dereference.
Verification:
grep -rn '&std::wstring' --include=*.cpp --include=*.h . # nothing
ninja -C build parse # no popup_* or SkillMenu sites remain
ninja -C build -k 0 # Release, four applications, green
ninja -C build-debug -k 0 # Debug, four applications, green
