This is because we need to be able to signal different TOCs
to downstream elements such as muxers and the application,
and because we need to send both types as events (because
the sink should post the TOC messages for the app in the
end, just like tag messages are now posted by the sinks),
and hence need to make TOC events multi-sticky.

The linking behaviour of external variables that are not initialized
in the compilation unit where they are defined is undefined. On OS X
this causes a linking failure when statically linking GStreamer.
Also register queries with a QueryType that allows us to check if the event is
sent in the right direction. Add a serialized query type because we will need
this for the allocation query.
Remove the QueryTypeDefinition stuff, it is not used anymore and we now use
custom queries and separate API for them.
Update defs.
Remove trace, we use debug log for that
Make alloc trace simpler, removing some methods.
Activate alloc trace with a GST_TRACE=3 environment variable.
Dump leaked objects atexit.
Provide an offset in the object where the GType can be found so that more
verbose info can be given for objects.
Remove -T option from gst-launch because tracing is now triggered with the
environment variable.
We introduced our own when GLib didn't want to add a GType
for GError. But now that there is one, we can use GLib's
unconditionally and remove our version.
There are many good use cases for GstIndex and we want
to add it back again in some form, but possibly not with
the current API, which is very powerful (maybe too powerful),
but also a bit confusing. At the very least we'd need to
make the API bindings-friendly.
Add a GstControlBinding class. This is a preparation for making the
controlsources generate double valued control curves and do the gparamspec
mapping in the control binding. Now the API in GstObject is again mostly
for convenience.
Add a new simple miniobject that is a combination of a GstBuffer, GstCaps,
GstSegment and other arbitrary info organized in a GstStructure. This object can
be used to exchange samples between an element and the application or for
storing album art in tags etc.
Better now than later in the cycle. These might come in handy:
sed -i -e 's/GstProbeReturn/GstPadProbeReturn/g' `git grep GstProbeReturn | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
sed -i -e 's/GST_PROBE_/GST_PAD_PROBE_/g' `git grep GST_PROBE_ | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
sed -i -e 's/GstProbeType/GstPadProbeType/g' `git grep GstProbeType | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
This was a FIXME for 0.11. I guess a case could be made to keep it around
separately for apps or libraries that only want to use GStreamer's debugging
system, but it seems more likely they'd just copy the two source files into
their own tree if the case. Also, things like types wouldn't be initialised
without gst_init(). We can still make it public again if anyone needs it,
but then we should make it a proper function and not hide it behind
underscores.
Remove gst_mini_object_register() and add a GST_DEFINE_MINI_OBJECT macro to
define a _get_type() function for the boxed miniobject.
Remove a bunch of custom _get_type() functions and replace them with the
miniobject macro.
Rename some _init method to _priv_*_initialize() like the rest of them.
Inspired by patch from Johan Dahlin and see bug #657603
gst_structure_get_type() -> _gst_structure_type to avoid method calls for
getting the GType that initialized at the start.
Hide some structure fields in private data so that we can change the
implementation.
Move structure equality check from caps.c to structure.c where it belongs.
Remove the context again, adding an extra layer of refcounting and object
creation to manage an array is too complicated and inefficient. Use a simple
array again.
Also implement event updates when calling gst_pad_chain() and
gst_event_send_event() directly.
This reverts commit 9ef1346b1f.
Way to much for one commit and I'm not sure we want to get rid of the pad caps
just like that. It's nice to have the buffer and its type in onw nice bundle
without having to drag the complete context with it.
Just like gst_caps_intersect, but adds a new parameter 'mode'
that allows selecting the intersection algorithm to use.
Currently we have GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_ZIG_ZAG (default) and
GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_FIRST.
API: gst_caps_intersect_full
API: GstCapsIntersectMode
API: GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_ZIG_ZAG
API: GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_FIRST

Add first implementation of arbitrary buffer metadata. We use a simple linked
linked of slice allocated metadata chunks. Future implementations could use
something more performant.
Add get, remove, iterate methods to handle the metadata.
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.

Late g_thread_init() is fine with newer GLib versions and done automatically
from g_type_init() there, so don't warn if the application hasn't called
g_thread_init() yet when gst_init() is called with new GLib versions.
Fixes#608398.
We require threads to be supported in any case and defining this
will simplify the mutex, condition variable, etc. macros from gthread
to not always check if threads are really supported.
Fixes bug #607481.
The OGI links are dead, so remove them. Also remove the paragraph that pointed
to OGI and DS. Only mentioning DS there made it a but pointless. Add a generic
paragraph instead that tells a bit about the usecases gstreamer covers.
Possibly fixes GObject class creation/unref race conditions when
creating the last-message string in fakesink for events with
structures that have fields with these enum types.
