Hm,
if readdir returned the SAME pointer every time
list.entries[c]->pde would have the SAME value.
BUT they don't.
Of course what you propose solves the problem, thanks you.
BUT WHY and by WHOM heap memory is corrupted after list.entries has been reallocated?

list_config_entries
list_config_entries(3alleg4) Allegro manual list_config_entries(3alleg4)
NAME
list_config_entries - Lists the names of all entries in a config section Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
int list_config_entries(const char *section, const char ***names);
DESCRIPTION
This function can be used to get a list of all entries in the given config section. The names parameter is a pointer to an array of
strings. If it points to a NULL pointer, the list will be allocated, else it will be re-allocated. You should free the list again with
free_config_entries if you don't need it anymore, or you can pass it again to list_config_entries and the memory will be re-used. See the
following example for how you can use it, it will print out the complete contents of the current configuration:
int i, n;
char const **sections = NULL;
char const **entries = NULL;
/* List all entries not in any section. */
n = list_config_entries(NULL, &entries);
for (i = 0; i
printf(" %s="%s"
", entries[i], get_config_string(
NULL, entries[i], "-"));
/* List all sections (and entries in them). */
n = list_config_sections(§ions);
/* loop through all section names */
for (i = 0; i
{
int j, m;
printf("%s
", sections[i]);
m = list_config_entries(sections[i], &entries);
/* loop through all entries in the section */
for (j = 0; j
{
printf(" %s="%s"
", entries[j], get_config_string(
sections[i], entries[j], "-"));
}
}
/* It is enough to free the arrays once at the end. */
free_config_entries(§ions);
free_config_entries(&entries);
RETURN VALUE
Returns the number of valid strings in the names array.
