Fixes #1986
There are certain OpenAL parameters, meant to be passed into
ALC.getString(), that return a list of strings. For example,ALC_ALL_DEVICES_SPECIFIERto get the names of available playback audio devices orALC_CAPTURE_DEVICE_SPECIFIERto get the names of available capture devices.ALC.getString()assumes that the result will always be a standard C string with a single NULL character at the end, but this is not the case when passing the params mentioned above:This PR introduces the
ALC.getStringList(device, param)method which handles these lists properly and returns them as anArray<String>. If list handling is unnecessary for the param provided, the result will simply be[ALC.getString(device, param)]
