Original commit message from CVS:
registry handling changes
read up on it in docs/random/thomasvs/registry if interested
net effect should be transparent; ie. it will keep on working, but will
be more flexible than before. Testing with garnome seems to work now.
Should probably be rewritten completely, together with plugin loading, but
only after we spec it out ;) It's a bit messy.
Original commit message from CVS:
commit to make gstreamer follow the gtk function/macro naming conventions:
GstPadTemplate <-> gst_pad_template <-> GST_PAD_TEMPLATE
and the same for *factory and typefind.
Original commit message from CVS:
* new parser that uses flex and bison
- doesn't do dynamic pipelines yet...
* added GErrors to the gst_parse_launch[v] api
* added --gst-mask-help command line option
* fixed -o option for gst-launch
* GstElement api change:
- gst_element_get_pad
- gst_element_get_request_pad, gst_element_get_static_pad
- gst_element_get_compatible_pad
- gst_element_get_compatible_static_pad, gst_element_get_compatible_request_pad
- gst_element_[dis]connect -> gst_element_[dis]connect_pads
- gst_element_[dis]connect_elements -> gst_element_[dis]connect
* manual update
* example, tool, and doc updates for the api changes
- no more plugin docs in the core docs, plugins require a more
extensive doc system
Original commit message from CVS:
patch from jim thornton <jthornton@parc.com>:
Buffer flag symbols are enum values, so |'ing together doesn't do the right
thing, must use GST_BUFFER_FLAG_SET macro
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a signal which notifies when a required dparam is added.
Added gst_dpman_bypass_dparam so that some dparams can be exposed as object properties as well. If the object property is set, a connected dparam is disconnected to avoid the two subsystems fighting over setting the value.
Original commit message from CVS:
* form a semantic representation of the pipeline in preparation for
actual instantiation.
the parser is shaping up quite nicely; it should, in theory, be able to create
all types of pipelines that gstreamer supports
Original commit message from CVS:
add (incomplete) flex/bison-based parser to cvs
the tokenizer is functional, but the grammar definition is bad. this
probably breaks distcheck somehow, but hey.
Original commit message from CVS:
* add notify back to filesrc, it's needed for MVC applications
* remove notify printouts from gst-launch
* cleanup in gst-plugins configure.ac
* some jack updates
* remove SELF_ITERATING flag in favor of SEF_SCHEDULABLE (not a clear name,
but it's what we have for the moment)
* improve parsing of request pad names, no more sscanf
* fixes to the fastscheduler Makefile.am
Original commit message from CVS:
- Remove the propsprivate header file
- Added new API for properties.
- Moved the clock distribution to the scheduler.
- Removed the lock from GstCaps
- Added boxed types for Caps/Props
- Simplified the clock, new systemclock implementation
- Removed deprecated element_info/send_event functions
- First step at exposing more info in the pad_connect functions
- Queue cleanup
- Make the scheduler aware of other schedulers inside it
- Added the _SELF_SCHEDULABLE flag to gstthread
- Removed _get_widget from _utils, changed to new props API
- Make fakesink sync on timestamps when requested
- Removed the offset notify from filesrc
- Added a fast scheduler
- some scheduler cleanups.
Original commit message from CVS:
apply patch from jim thornton <jthornton@parc.com>:
"bugfix for intersecting int list with int range: the proper intersection
should be those ints in the list that lie within the range (rather than an
empty intersection)."
the reverse of this case doesn't exist, because if the entry1 is a list,
the members are broken out and tested seperately, therefore the intersection
would be int <-> int range, which does work.
Original commit message from CVS:
* added plugin_desc structures to libs, which makes their locations cached in the registry. this
speeds plugin loading considerably, especially on uninstalled versions.
* put the lib path before all others, for speed reasons.
* some fixes to adder's caps.
* added linefeeds (\n) to GST_DEBUG strings to match GST_INFO behavior. this is more sane. all
code will need to be converted. i think some perl can do this.
Original commit message from CVS:
s/POINTER/OBJECT/ in g_signal_new for NEW_PAD and PAD_REMOVED.
Very important for python bindings to know it's getting an GObject
vs a boxed anonymous pointer.
Original commit message from CVS:
* removal of //-style comments
* don't link plugins to core libs -- the versioning is done internally to the plugins with the plugin_info struct,
and symbol resolution is lazy, so we can always know if a plugin can be loaded by the plugin_info data. in theory.
