Add a new LOCKED flag to the metadata. Refuse removing LOCKED metadata from
a buffer.
Mark the metadata from the bufferpool LOCKED.
Add unit test for LOCKED flag
Rename _do_simplify() to _simplify(). The name was introduced as a replacement
method for a deprecated method but we can now rename it again.
Fix some docs.
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.
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.
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
Add a GType to the metadata to identify the GstMetaInfo.
We can remove the (de)serialize functions for the metadata because we can
register GTtype transform functions between various types to implement
serialization later.
Replace subbuffer and copy vmethods by a more generic transform function that
can then be parametrised by transform specific data. This should allow us to
implement make-writable and more future transform functions.
Make separate api for getting and adding metadata. This allows us to pass extra
parameters to the init functions when creating metadata, which is needed for
specific API implementations.
Add beginnings of memory metadata.
Original commit message from CVS:
Header cleanup: try to include as little as possible; this will probably
speed up compilation a bit.
changed the .c files to use #include "..."
Fix for the 'plugins are loaded twice' bug.
Fix 22186: GstObject flags are now used everywhere. Added *_FLAG_LAST so
elements do not use the same flags. Added some padding in the flag enum
for future expansion.
Original commit message from CVS:
More Docs updates.
Added plugin documentation. I fear we need a gstdoc implementation
that loads plugins and does introspection on them. I think we should
automatically create the docs for the pads and mime types the plugins
provide. Does anyone have enough perl knowledge to add these features? I
allready changed the C code to output the pad definitions but my perl
knowledge is too limited, for now, to implement the rest of the needed
functionality...
