glib-sharp will only get a new release with the new API that we need for
3.0 in a year or something. Instead of waiting a year before we can release
something we now have our own internal copy of glib-sharp trunk that will
be dropped once glib-sharp 3.0 is released.
Everything is now compilable and working without any additional patches.
There are three types of solution used: adding the new keyword to the member
in the subclass, renaming the subclass member to avoid name collision and
removing the subclass member if the functionality is the same.
- Use automake --foreign to silence warnings about gnu extensions.
- Add gstreamer-api.xml as prerequisite for gstreamer-sharp/*plugins/generated/%.cs
- Avoid executing $(MAKE) -C {core,base}plugins multiple times when gstreamer-api.xml is changed.
- Only generate xml for elements with changed metadata
