Add a GstControlBinding class. This is a preparation for making the
controlsources generate double valued control curves and do the gparamspec
mapping in the control binding. Now the API in GstObject is again mostly
for convenience.
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.
Better now than later in the cycle. These might come in handy:
sed -i -e 's/GstProbeReturn/GstPadProbeReturn/g' `git grep GstProbeReturn | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
sed -i -e 's/GST_PROBE_/GST_PAD_PROBE_/g' `git grep GST_PROBE_ | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
sed -i -e 's/GstProbeType/GstPadProbeType/g' `git grep GstProbeType | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
This was a FIXME for 0.11. I guess a case could be made to keep it around
separately for apps or libraries that only want to use GStreamer's debugging
system, but it seems more likely they'd just copy the two source files into
their own tree if the case. Also, things like types wouldn't be initialised
without gst_init(). We can still make it public again if anyone needs it,
but then we should make it a proper function and not hide it behind
underscores.
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
gst_structure_get_type() -> _gst_structure_type to avoid method calls for
getting the GType that initialized at the start.
Hide some structure fields in private data so that we can change the
implementation.
Move structure equality check from caps.c to structure.c where it belongs.
Remove the context again, adding an extra layer of refcounting and object
creation to manage an array is too complicated and inefficient. Use a simple
array again.
Also implement event updates when calling gst_pad_chain() and
gst_event_send_event() directly.
This reverts commit 9ef1346b1f.
Way to much for one commit and I'm not sure we want to get rid of the pad caps
just like that. It's nice to have the buffer and its type in onw nice bundle
without having to drag the complete context with it.
Just like gst_caps_intersect, but adds a new parameter 'mode'
that allows selecting the intersection algorithm to use.
Currently we have GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_ZIG_ZAG (default) and
GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_FIRST.
API: gst_caps_intersect_full
API: GstCapsIntersectMode
API: GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_ZIG_ZAG
API: GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_FIRST
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617045
Add first implementation of arbitrary buffer metadata. We use a simple linked
linked of slice allocated metadata chunks. Future implementations could use
something more performant.
Add get, remove, iterate methods to handle the metadata.
This changes some APIs in compatible ways:
- Some functions now take "const char *" arguments, not "char *"
- Some structs now have "conts char *" members, not "char *"
The changes may cause warnings when compiling with the right warning
flags. You've been warned.
Also adds -Wwrite-strings as a warning flag in configure.ac.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611692
Late g_thread_init() is fine with newer GLib versions and done automatically
from g_type_init() there, so don't warn if the application hasn't called
g_thread_init() yet when gst_init() is called with new GLib versions.
Fixes#608398.
We require threads to be supported in any case and defining this
will simplify the mutex, condition variable, etc. macros from gthread
to not always check if threads are really supported.
Fixes bug #607481.
The OGI links are dead, so remove them. Also remove the paragraph that pointed
to OGI and DS. Only mentioning DS there made it a but pointless. Add a generic
paragraph instead that tells a bit about the usecases gstreamer covers.
Possibly fixes GObject class creation/unref race conditions when
creating the last-message string in fakesink for events with
structures that have fields with these enum types.
Fixes build with -Werror caused by '_FILE_OFFSET_BITS redefined' warning on
OpenSolaris where _FILE_OFFSET_BITS may be defined both in our config.h
and via stdio.h (#575695).
This will be mostly useful in all elements that have some kind of internal
seek/index table. Currently almost all of them (or even all of them)
are using a linear search although the used array is already sorted,
wasting some CPU time without good reason.
Fixes bug #573623.

Remove GST_DISABLE_(ENUMTYPES|INDEX|URI) everywhere.
Disabling the indexers and URI handler code will only reduce the
required amount of memory by a very small amount but on the other hand
requires much more maintaince work. Apart from that many places of
code are broken when disabling them.
Disabling the enum types doesn't reduce the required amount of memory
by more than a few bytes and makes it hard to fix bugs like #539772,
i.e. use the enums as GObject properties.

Don't use GST_INFO before the debug system is actually initialised

* gst/gstinfo.h:
GST_CAT_LEVEL_LOG_valist(), which is our inline helper function for
compilers that don't support variadic macros (such as MSVC), should
check for debug_level <= __gst_debug_min as well, since that's the
function called from all the level-specific GST_CAT_*_LOG_OBJECT()
inline helper functions. Should improve performance a bit, but also
makes sure uses of GST_INFO et.al are ignored if the debugging
system isn't initialised yet (instead of printing an assertion
failure).

Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gst.c: (gst_init_get_option_group):
Make warning about late g_thread_init() calls a bit more explicit,

to do if a user files a bug against their application.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gst.c: (gst_init_get_option_group), (gst_init_check),
(init_pre):
Call g_thread_init() first thing in gst_init() / gst_check_init().
When initialisation is done via gst_init_get_option_group() and
GOption parsing, issue a warning if the GLib thread system has not
been initialised yet by the time gst_init_get_option_group() is
called, as it's quite likely other GLib functions such as
g_option_context_new() have been called already then, and
g_thread_init() must be called before any other GLib function. The
application in question must be fixed in that case, since memory
corruption might happen otherwise.
We issue the warning because even if the GLib folks decide to work
around the problem on their end in future, this is still an issue
with all GLib versions >= 2.10.0, so we should warn until we depend
on a GLib version we know to be safe.
Update documentation as well.

Make sure gstprivate.h and/or config.h are
always included first, otherwise some of our
defines (like _FILE_OFFSET_BITS) might be
redefined in the system headers. Fixes build
on opensolaris (#340016).

Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gst.c:
Add a check and output a g_warning when GStreamer is built
against GLib 2.6 but running against 2.8 or higher, and vice
versa. (Closes: #323542)
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gst.c: (init_post):
Init tags stuff and some other things before loading
any static plugins (there may be other static plugins
than just the GStreamer ones, and they may want to
register their own tags or formats or whatever, and
preferably without segfaulting).
* plugins/elements/gstqueue.c: (gst_queue_handle_src_query):
Print at least a warning in the debug logs if we drop a
query just because we don't know how to adjust the value
in the particular format.
