Examples of elements that <emphasis>have</emphasis> to be loop-based are
elements with multiple sink pads. Since the scheduler will push data into

A second type of elements that wants to be loop-based, are the so-called

use bytestream, which wraps this behaviour.

<title>Writing a Manager</title>
<para>
FIXME: write.
Managers are elements that add a function or unify the function of
another (series of) element(s). Managers are generally a
<classname>GstBin</classname> with one or more ghostpads. Inside them
is/are the actual element(s) that matters. There is several cases where
this is useful. For example:

another element.

<listitem>
<para>

</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
To add custom data handling before or after another element's data
handler function (generally its <function>_chain ()</function>
function).
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>
This chapter will explain the setup of managers. As a specific example,
we will try to add EOS event support to source elements. This can be
used to finish capturing an audio stream to a file. Source elements
normally don't do any EOS handling at all, so a manager is perfect to
extend those element's functionalities.
</para>
<para>
Specifically, this element will contain two child elements: the actual
source element and a <quote>helper element</quote> that implement an
event handler on its source pad. This event handler will respond to
EOS events by storing them internally and returning the event (rather
than data) on the next call to the <function>_get ()</function>
function. After that, it will go into EOS and set the parent (and
thereby the contained source element) to EOS as well. Other events will
be forwarded to the source element, which will handle them as usual.
