Move the locking methods from GstMemory to GstMiniObject.
Add a miniobject flag to enable LOCKABLE objects. LOCKABLE objects can
use the lock/unlock API to control the access to the object.
Add a minobject flag that allows you to lock an object in readonly mode.
Modify the _is_writable() method to check the shared counter for LOCKABLE
objects. This allows us to control writability separately from the refcount for
LOCKABLE objects.
So mini objects don't have to poke into the GstMiniObject part
of the structure. Saves lines of code, and seems slightly cleaner.
We don't have proper OO hierarchies or methods here after all.
The size field is used by subclasses to store the total allocated size of the
memory for this miniobject. Because miniobject doesn't really do anything with
this field we can move it to the subclasses.
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
Avoid playing with the refcount to decide when a buffer has been recycled by the
dispose function. The problem is that we then temporarily can have a buffer with
a refcount > 1 being acquired from the pool, which is not writable. Instead use
a simple boolean return value from the dispose function to inform the called
that the object was recycled or not.
Add a new method to steal the miniobject stored at a location.
Add a new method to store a miniobject in a location and taking ownership
of the miniobject.
API: gst_mini_object_weak_ref()
API: gst_mini_object_weak_unref()
Add weak referencing functionality to GstMiniObject, which
allows to get notifications when an mini object is destroyed
but doesn't increase the real refcount. This is mostly
useful for bindings.
Fixes bug #609473.
This was required to add a new MEDIA4 buffer flag for indicating
progressive/mixed telecine video buffers. There is no space for
additional flags in GstBuffer, so steal one from GstMiniObject.

Make code including GStreamer headers compile with -Wcast-qual by
maintaining const-ness when casting. Also fix function signature of
gst_byte_writer_set_pos(): the byte writer should not be marked as
const.

Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstminiobject.c: (gst_value_dup_mini_object),
(gst_param_spec_mini_object):
* gst/gstminiobject.h:
* win32/common/libgstreamer.def:
* docs/gst/gstreamer-sections.txt:
API: Add GST_IS_PARAM_SPEC_MINI_OBJECT, GST_PARAM_SPEC_MINI_OBJECT
GST_TYPE_PARAM_MINI_OBJECT and gst_value_dup_mini_object. Also move
GstParamSpecMiniObject into a public header for this.
This make GstMiniObject a bit more consistent with GObject and makes
it possible to extend the param specs.
gst_value_dup_mini_object is mainly useful for set_property methods.
Fixes bug #523798.
* tools/gst-inspect.c: (print_element_properties_info):
Print something useful for GstMiniObject properties and not just
"unknown type".
Original commit message from CVS:
2005-11-29 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
* gst/gstevent.h (struct _GstEvent): Only one pointer of padding.
* gst/gststructure.h (struct _GstStructure): Only one pointer of
padding.
* gst/gstquery.h (struct _GstQuery): Only one pointer of padding.
* gst/gstpluginfeature.h: Remove a comment in PluginFeature.
* gst/gstplugin.h (struct _GstPluginClass): Add some padding.
* gst/gstobject.h: (struct _GstObject): Only one pointer of
padding; reduces object size by about 30%. We don't expect
anything else to go into gstobject.
* gst/gstminiobject.h (struct _GstMiniObject)
(struct _GstMiniObjectClass): Only one pointer of padding; the
payload is only a pointer and two ints anyway. For the class there
are only two methods as well.
* gst/gstelement.h (struct _GstElementClass): Removed
the state_changed signal callback, it is not used.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstbuffer.c: (_gst_buffer_copy):
Copy more flags.
* gst/gstcaps.c: (gst_caps_is_equal):
Fix some docs.
Make _is_equal fast in the trivial cases.
* gst/gstminiobject.c:
* gst/gstminiobject.h:
More docs. Spifify .h file.
* gst/gstutils.c:
Small doc update.
Original commit message from CVS:
* docs/gst/gstreamer-sections.txt:
move some macros to private sections
* gst/gstminiobject.c:
* gst/gstminiobject.h:
add descriptions provided by ds and some more
* gst/gstpad.h:
mark macro as to be removed
