Original commit message from CVS:
together with the recent commit in common, this little beauty should
- implement both --with-automake and --with-autoconf to autogen.sh
- pass them on to configure, along with good settings for aclocal and autoheader
- which then forces these tools to be used in rebuilding through running
make in the dirs (which was the whole point of this makeover)
Please test and let me know if it doesn't break other stuff.
Right, going to make the really minimal set of changes to all of our other
modules now. I love having made a common/ dir ;)
We now return to your regularly scheduled broadcast.
Original commit message from CVS:
Totally rewritten registry handling.
- move the registry save/load code into a gstregistry subclass, this
will make it possible to use other registries (flat file, web based,
RDBMS type, etc..)
- a simple GMarkup xml registry is implemented
- use standard statically linked plugins for core elements.
- GstPlugin has a very well defined set of functions now
A little bytestream hack..
Added more info to -inspect.
Some more debugging info for clocking.
Small cleanups
I use ./gst-register --gst-plugin-path=/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/gst-libs:/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/
to register core and gst-plugins now.
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:
* no good reason to require glib 1.3.15 so back to 1.3.12
* put version checking for glib and libxml in configure.ac
* subst'd these minimum required versions so they can be used in spec file
Original commit message from CVS:
to set default categories for an app, call set_categories before the gst_init
restores gst-register to its previous verbosity (but --gst-mask=0 works)
Original commit message from CVS:
first pass at integrating popt into gstreamer
note: you will need popt 1.6.3 or greater (configure checks for this) -- debian
people will either need to patch popt 1.6.2 or install 1.6.3 by hand.
Original commit message from CVS:
Revert aclocal invocation to do cat m4/*.m4 > acinclude.m4 beforehand,
rather than adding m4/ to aclocal search path. Shouldn't cause errors when
macros are already present on system, because macros in acinclude.m4 are
used in preference.
Original commit message from CVS:
Change soversion back to 0:0:0 and add use of -release flag for libtool.
This means that any program linking against libgst will automatically have
the specific release of libgst encoded into it. This enforces the fact
that (for the moment), the API/ABI is changing rapidly enough that you
can't link against 0.3.2 originally and have it still work with 0.3.3. It
might be possible, but highly unlikely.
When we get closer to a stable API/ABI, in the 0.5.0 timeframe most likely,
we will start using soversions as recommended in the libtool docs. Then
we have to pay more attention to forward and backwards compatiblity, or
rather, we have to *start* paying attention <g>
