Avoid playing with the refcount to decide when a buffer has been recycled by the
dispose function. The problem is that we then temporarily can have a buffer with
a refcount > 1 being acquired from the pool, which is not writable. Instead use
a simple boolean return value from the dispose function to inform the called
that the object was recycled or not.
Add a new method to steal the miniobject stored at a location.
Add a new method to store a miniobject in a location and taking ownership
of the miniobject.
API: gst_mini_object_weak_ref()
API: gst_mini_object_weak_unref()
Add weak referencing functionality to GstMiniObject, which
allows to get notifications when an mini object is destroyed
but doesn't increase the real refcount. This is mostly
useful for bindings.
Fixes bug #609473.
gst_mini_object_unref() has guards that check the type already, so
we don't really need to re-check it here again while getting the
class (there's not really much point to that anyway, since we don't
check the return value of the get_class, so we'd crash anyway if
we're not dealing with a mini object, the only question would
be if there'd be a warning before the crash or not).
This is not really necessary here because everything is
initialized from gst_init() already but using G_DEFINE_TYPE()
removes some copy&paste boilerplate code.
This makes it possible to easily get a *:5 debug log without all
the refcounting noise, and drastically reduces the number of lines
output for a normal log (46m to 28m for a 20min video). The full log
including refcounting information can still be gotten using *:7.
Fixes#620460.
This changes some APIs in compatible ways:
- Some functions now take "const char *" arguments, not "char *"
- Some structs now have "conts char *" members, not "char *"
The changes may cause warnings when compiling with the right warning
flags. You've been warned.
Also adds -Wwrite-strings as a warning flag in configure.ac.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611692
Avoid a race where a miniobject is recycled and quickly freed, which causes the
g_type_free_instance() to be called on the same object twice.
Ref the object before calling the finalize method and check if we still need to
free it afterward.
Also add a unit test for this case.
Fixes#601587

function was not in the unscheduled 0.10.19 release.
Original commit message from CVS:

(gst_param_spec_mini_object):

API: Add GST_IS_PARAM_SPEC_MINI_OBJECT, GST_PARAM_SPEC_MINI_OBJECT
GST_TYPE_PARAM_MINI_OBJECT and gst_value_dup_mini_object. Also move
GstParamSpecMiniObject into a public header for this.
This make GstMiniObject a bit more consistent with GObject and makes
it possible to extend the param specs.
gst_value_dup_mini_object is mainly useful for set_property methods.
