Issue extracting strings with null delimiters

[Daniel Drojanov]

Hey,

There's an issue in extracting strings (with xgettext) from gst-plugins-base where a string has null delimiters -

static const gchar genres[] =
"Blues\000Classic Rock\000Country\000Dance\000Disco\000Funk\000Grunge\000"
"Hip-Hop\000Jazz\000Metal\000New Age\000Oldies\000Other\000Pop\000R&B\000"
"Rap\000Reggae\000Rock\000Techno\000Industrial\000Alternative\000Ska\000"
"Death Metal\000Pranks\000Soundtrack\000Euro-Techno\000Ambient\000Trip-Hop"
"\000Vocal\000Jazz+Funk\000Fusion\000Trance\000Classical\000Instrumental\000"
"Acid\000House\000Game\000Sound Clip\000Gospel\000Noise\000Alternative Rock"
"\000Bass\000Soul\000Punk\000Space\000Meditative\000Instrumental Pop\000"
"Instrumental Rock\000Ethnic\000Gothic\000Darkwave\000Techno-Industrial\000"
"Electronic\000Pop-Folk\000Eurodance\000Dream\000Southern Rock\000Comedy"
"\000Cult\000Gangsta\000Top 40\000Christian Rap\000Pop/Funk\000Jungle\000"
"Native American\000Cabaret\000New Wave\000Psychedelic\000Rave\000Showtunes"
"\000Trailer\000Lo-Fi\000Tribal\000Acid Punk\000Acid Jazz\000Polka\000"
"Retro\000Musical\000Rock & Roll\000Hard Rock\000Folk\000Folk/Rock\000"
"National Folk\000Swing\000Bebob\000Latin\000Revival\000Celtic\000Bluegrass"
"\000Avantgarde\000Gothic Rock\000Progressive Rock\000Psychedelic Rock\000"
"Symphonic Rock\000Slow Rock\000Big Band\000Chorus\000Easy Listening\000"
"Acoustic\000Humour\000Speech\000Chanson\000Opera\000Chamber Music\000"
"Sonata\000Symphony\000Booty Bass\000Primus\000Porn Groove\000Satire\000"
"Slow Jam\000Club\000Tango\000Samba\000Folklore\000Ballad\000Power Ballad\000"
"Rhythmic Soul\000Freestyle\000Duet\000Punk Rock\000Drum Solo\000A Capella"
"\000Euro-House\000Dance Hall\000Goa\000Drum & Bass\000Club-House\000"
"Hardcore\000Terror\000Indie\000BritPop\000Negerpunk\000Polsk Punk\000"
"Beat\000Christian Gangsta Rap\000Heavy Metal\000Black Metal\000"
"Crossover\000Contemporary Christian\000Christian Rock\000Merengue\000"
"Salsa\000Thrash Metal\000Anime\000Jpop\000Synthpop";

I'm using xgettext-0.21 to extract the strings -

xgettext -a --no-wrap ./gst-libs/gst/tag/gstid3tag.c -o -

I'm getting only one of the strings -

#: gst-libs/gst/tag/gstid3tag.c:51
msgid "Blues"
msgstr ""

While I should get also "Classic Rock", "Country", "Dance", etc...
