Imagine elements such as mixers or polyphonic generators. They all * have multiple #GstPad or some kind of voice objects. Another use case are * container elements like #GstBin. * The element implementing the interface acts as a parent for those child * objects. * * By implementing this interface the child properties can be accessed from the * parent element by using gst_child_proxy_get() and gst_child_proxy_set(). * * Property names are written as "child-name::property-name". The whole naming * scheme is recursive. Thus "child1::child2::property" is valid too, if * "child1" and "child2" implement the #GstChildProxy interface. */ /* FIXME-0.11: * it would be nice to make gst_child_proxy_get_child_by_name virtual too and * use GObject instead of GstObject. We could eventually provide the current * implementation as a default if children are GstObjects. * This change would allow to propose the interface for inclusion with * glib/gobject. IMHO this is useful for GtkContainer and compound widgets too. */ #include "gst_private.h" #include "gstchildproxy.h" #include "gstmarshal.h" #include /* signals */ enum { CHILD_ADDED, CHILD_REMOVED, LAST_SIGNAL }; static guint signals[LAST_SIGNAL] = { 0 }; /** * gst_child_proxy_get_child_by_name: * @parent: the parent object to get the child from * @name: the childs name * * Looks up a child element by the given name. * * Implementors can use #GstObject together with gst_object_get_name() * * Returns: the child object or %NULL if not found.
