GstBus
|
||
|
------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The GstBus is an object responsible for delivering GstMessages in
|
||
|
a first-in first-out way from the streaming threads to the application.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since the application typically only wants to deal with delivery of these
|
||
|
messages from one thread, the GstBus will marshall the messages between
|
||
|
different threads.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The GstBus provides support for GSource based notifications. This makes it
|
||
|
possible to handle the delivery in the glib mainloop.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A message is posted on the bus with the gst_bus_post() method. With the
|
||
|
gst_bus_peek() and _pop() methods one can look at or retrieve a previously
|
||
|
posted message.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The bus can be polled with the gst_bus_poll() method. This methods blocks
|
||
|
up to the specified timeout value until one of the specified messages types
|
||
|
is posted on the bus. The application can then _pop() the messages from the
|
||
|
bus to handle them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is also possible to get messages from the bus without any thread
|
||
|
marshalling with the gst_bus_set_sync_handler() method. This makes it
|
||
|
possible to react to a message in the same thread that posted the
|
||
|
message on the bus. This should only be used if the application is able
|
||
|
to deal with messages from different threads.
