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 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.
This make the controller even more lightweight (no extra object, no extra lock,
less indirections). For object that don't use the controller the only 'overhead'
is a 3 unused fields in the gst_object structure.
Move the controller to gstobject as a simple delegate. The controller and
controlsource are not classes in core. The controlsources stay separate as a lib
for now. This way we can avoid the qdata lookups.
Also remove controller_init(). There is no more need to link to controller for
elements.
Also sanitize the API. We now have functions to add properties like we had
methods to remove that. That avoids then ref count hacks we had in _new.
It was a bit too clever, and didn't really work as an API,
confusing people to no end. Better implement specific methods
whether an interface is usable/available/ready on the interface
itself, or even add GError arguments, rather than try to have
per-instance interfaces.

Add generic poll abstraction. We ideally don't want to have this in core
here but in glib intead...
This code will be used in various network elements and ultimately for
the nanosecond precision monotonic clock (that's why it's here in core).
It'll allow us to implement cancelable socket operations for windows too.

Registry rewrite. Changes registry from being a file created
by a tool into a simple cache file created automatically by
libgstreamer. Removed gst-register (because it's no longer
needed). Remove registry pools, because we only have one
registry implementation (XML). Fix up other subsystems as
necessary.

Removed Scheduler/Manager from elements.
Removed gsttypes.h, rearranged includes.
Removed dependency pad<->element, element<>pipeline, and
various others, fix includes.
implement gst_pad_get_parent() with gst_object_get_parent()
Make GstTask sefcontained.
Fix _get_state() on GstBin, it did not return ASYNC with a 0
timeout.
Fix endless loop in iterator_fold_with_resync.

2005-06-08 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
* gst/gstutils.c: RPAD fixes all around.
(gst_element_link_pads): Refcounting fixes.
* tools/gst-inspect.c:
* tools/gst-xmlinspect.c:
* parse/grammar.y:
* gst/base/gsttypefindhelper.c:
* gst/base/gstbasesink.c:
* gst/gstqueue.c: RPAD fixes.
* gst/gstghostpad.h:
* gst/gstghostpad.c: New ghost pad implementation as full proxy
pads. The tricky thing is they provide both source and sink
interfaces, since they proxy the internal pad for the external
pad, and vice versa. Implement with lower-level ProxyPad objects,
with the interior proxy pad as a child of the exterior ghost pad.
Should write a doc on this.
* gst/gstpad.h: s/RPAD/PAD/, s/RealPad/Pad/.
(gst_pad_set_name, gst_pad_set_parent): Macros removed, use
gst_object API.
* gst/gstpad.c: Big changes. No more stub base GstPad, now all
pads are real pads. No ghost pads in this file. Not documenting
the myriad s/RPAD/PAD/ and REALIZE fixes.
(gst_pad_class_init): Add properties for "direction" and
"template". Both are construct-only, so they can't change during
the life of the pad. Fixes properly deriving from GstPad.
(gst_pad_custom_new, gst_pad_custom_new_from_template): Gone. For
derived objects, just set properties when creating the objects via
g_object_new.
(gst_pad_get_parent): Implement as a function, return NULL if the
parent is not an element.
(gst_pad_get_real_parent, gst_pad_add_ghost_pad)
(gst_pad_remove_ghost_pad, gst_pad_realize): Removed.
* gst/gstobject.c (gst_object_class_init): Make name a construct
property. Don't set it in the object init.
* gst/gstelement.c (gst_element_add_pad): Don't allow adding pads
with UNKNOWN direction.
(gst_element_add_ghost_pad): Remove non-orthogonal API. Replace
with gst_element_add_pad (e, gst_ghost_pad_new (name, pad)).
(gst_element_remove_pad): Remove ghost-pad special cases.
(gst_element_pads_activate): Remove rpad cruft.
* gst/gstbin.c (gst_bin_change_state): Use gst_pad_get_parent to
catch the pad's-parent-not-an-element case.
* gst/gst.h: Include gstghostpad.h.
* gst/gst.c (init_post): No more real, ghost pads.
* gst/Makefile.am: Add gstghostpad.[ch].
* check/Makefile.am:
* check/gst/gstbin.c:
* check/gst/gstghostpad.c (test_ghost_pads): Check that linking
into a bin creates ghost pads, and that the refcounts are right.
Partly moved from gstbin.c.
Original commit message from CVS:
2005-05-06 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
* gst/gstquery.h
* gst/gstquery.c (_gst_query_initialize): Extend GstQuery from
GstData, init a memchunk.
(standard_definitions): Add a few query types, deprecate a few.
(gst_query_get_type): New proc.
(_gst_query_copy, _gst_query_free, gst_query_new): GstData
implementation.
(gst_query_new_application, gst_query_get_structure): New public
procs.
* docs/design/draft-query.txt: Removed LINKS from the query types,
because all the rest can be dispatched to other pads -- seemed
ugly to have a query that couldn't be dispatched. internal_links
is fine as a pad method.
* gst/gstpad.h: Add query2 as a pad method, add the new functions
in gstpad.c, but maintain binary compatibility for the moment.
Will fix before 0.9 is out.
* gst/gstqueryutils.c:
* gst/gstqueryutils.h: New files, implement 3 methods for each
query type: parse_query, parse_response, and set. Probably need an
allocator as well.
* gst/gst.h: Add gstquery.h and gstqueryutils.h to the list.
* gst/elements/gstfilesink.c (gst_filesink_query2):
* gst/base/gstbasesrc.c (gst_basesrc_query2): Replace old query,
query_types, and formats methods.
* gst/gstpad.c (gst_pad_query2, gst_pad_query2_default)
(gst_pad_set_query2_function): New functions.
(gst_real_pad_init): Set query2_default as the default query2
function. Basically just dispatches to internally linked pads.
Needs review!
* gst/gstdata_private.h (_GST_DATA_INIT): Set data->refcount to 1
without using the atomic operations. Only one thread can possibly
be accessing the data at this point. Changed so as to avoid
gst_atomic operations.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/Makefile.am: remove gstcpu.[ch]. The gst_cpu functionality
is broken and should be implemented in a different library.
* gst/gst.c: (init_post): don't call _gst_cpu_initialize()
* gst/gst.h: remove gstcpu.h
* gst/gstcpu.c: remove
* gst/gstcpu.h: remove
* gst/Makefile.am.future: Remove this file. It's ancient.
