There isn't really any need to provide public API for that. It's not
used anywhere in practice, and we aim to provide an API that works
for GstCaps, not some kind of generic set manipulation API based on
GValue. Making this private also makes it easier to optimise this
later. We can always put it back if someone actually needs it.
Because gst_pad_get_pad_template_caps() returns ANY when there is no template,
the query caps function should also return ANY when there is no template (and no
pad current caps) instead of EMPTY.
Split out the registration of the metadata API and its implementation. Make a
GType for each metadata API. This allows us to store extra information with the
API type such as the tags.
Change the buffer API so that we can get the metadata using the API GType.
Change the query API so that we use the metadata API GType in the allocation
query instead of a string.
Update netaddress and unit tests
Add support for adding tags to the metadata. with some standard keys, this
should make it possible to describe what the metadata refers to. We should be
able to use this information to decide if a transformation destroys the metadata
or not.
lseek() returns the offset if successful, and this is != 0 and
does not indicate an error. And if it does actually fail, don't
return FALSE (0) as an int, but -1. None of these things are
likely to have made a difference, ever. I don't think the offset
seek can ever actually happen, the current file position and the
current offset should always be increased in lock step, unless
there was an error in which case we'd just error out.
After a writer has written to its reserved write location, it can only make the
location available for reading if all of the writers with lower locations have
finished.
Fix a race where the reader would see the updated the tail pointer before the
write could write the data into the queue. Fix this by having a separate reader
tail pointer that is only incremented after the writer wrote the data.
Flesh out the transform method. Add a type and extra info to the transform
function so that implementation can transform the metadata.
Remove the copy function and replace with the more generic transform.
Make it possible to configure a GDestroyNotify and user_data for
gst_memory_new_wrapped() this allows for more flexible wrapping of foreign
memory blocks.
Don't use the duration in the segment for calculating clipping values.
The duration is expressed in stream time and clipping is done on unrelated
timestamp values.
This used to be interesting for elements that used the segment structure to
implement seeking because then they would use stream-time for the segment
start/stop values and the duration could be used as a fallback when the stop
position was not set. Now that the complete segment event is passed between
elements we cannot do this anymore because some elements might store the
duration and start/stop values with different time bases in the segment.
When we have no chain function or when we are operating the pad in the wrong
mode, emit a critical instead of posting an error message. This is certainly a
programming error and we cannot always post a message (like when the pad has no
parent)
