Original commit message from CVS:
added a test for pth and pthreads. in summary, it doesn't work because
in __pthread_find_self() some funny stack pointer math is done that
will result in no matches for __pthread_find_self(). this is dereferenced in
__errno_location, causing a segfault on context switch because of the errno-swapping
on the part of pth. it's a mess and i don't know how to get around it. i'll
have to look into what ngpt does for looking up errno, as it has kernel threads as
well as user threads.
Original commit message from CVS:
The core code from pth has been taken out and included in gstreamer.
This code is documented, more or less, in http://www-124.ibm.com/pthreads/docs/rse-pmt.ps.
This code is designed to replace cothreads.[ch], eventually.
Original commit message from CVS:
Delay pad negotiation until the element is in READY or higher. this will
gice the element a chance to open its devices before we start calling the
connect functions.
Make sure we use the real pad in the negotiation.
Some other small cleanups.
Original commit message from CVS:
miscellaneous fixes, added gst_pad_unset_sched() api.
although I unref the old pipeline and the cothread context gets freed in dynamic-pipeline.c,
I still get segfaults.
Original commit message from CVS:
* cleaning up duplicated code in gstbin.c
* added some sanity checks in gstpad.c
* added checks for failed connections in gstparse.c
* better docs in gstxml.c
Original commit message from CVS:
I've removed autoplug from build and dist since it seems to need Gnome and
we agreed not to have that in the core.
Can someone take a look at it ? I couldn't get it to work anyway ;)
It should probably either be rewritten without gnome or moved to another
module
Original commit message from CVS:
added a slightly new twist in dynamic-pipeline.c: I actually iterate the first pipeline.
this causes a segfault (at least on my machine, i've been having link issues today though).
if a scheduler wizard (ahem) could take at glance at this, i'd be eternally grateful :-)
Original commit message from CVS:
Previously filesrc would segfault when fed with the name of a directory.
Added check to ensure that the given file is a regular file.
Original commit message from CVS:
gst-xmllaunch works now. it's a separate target built from gst-launch.c, just with
a different name. it can set the properties of elements by name, as in
element.property=value. craete pipelines using gst-launch -o file.xml <pipeline description>
Original commit message from CVS:
* fix doc build for glib2
* remove template files from cvs, they are generated with gtkdoc-mktmpl
* new, cleaner interface to the parser facilities
* cleanups in gstparse.c
Original commit message from CVS:
Landed the new improved capsnegotiation system.
The main idea is to keep track of the possible data types that can
pass through a connection. plugins can at any time inspect, adjust and
refine these caps. plugins also get notified when something changes to
the types so that they can reconfigure themselves.
Look at the updated plugins and the soon to be finished doc.
Original commit message from CVS:
* s/filter/plugin/
* add $(GST_LIBS) to all plugins
* move Makefile.am things around to a mostly standard layout
* remove HTTP flags/libs from elements since http element moved
Original commit message from CVS:
summary: fix xml in gstreamer
1) make clear distinction between loading xml that actually creates objects and loading xml that just
synchronizes properties with objects. moved most of gst_element_restore_thyself functionality to
gst_xml_make_element. this new function name can change if it sucks.
2) many various fixes. createxml and runxml work now.
3) doc updates.
4) GstSignalObject is stil broken. i have no idea what it's supposed to do.
Original commit message from CVS:
added function gst_xml_write_file() which writes a nicely formatted and indented
xml representation of an element to a file. you can use stdout or stderr, for
example.
