The 0.11 porting guide
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
* All deprecated methods were removed. Recompile against 0.10 with
|
|
DISABLE_DEPRECATED and fix issues before attempting to port to 0.11.
|
|
|
|
* GST_BOILERPLATE is gone, use G_DEFINE_TYPE instead.
|
|
|
|
* various methods take a gsize instead of a guint when talking about memory
|
|
sizes.
|
|
|
|
* multifdsink, tcpclientsink, tcpclientsrc, tcpserversrc the protocol property
|
|
is removed, use gdppay and gdpdepay.
|
|
|
|
* GstObject:
|
|
GST_OBJECT_DISPOSING flag removed
|
|
GST_OBJECT_IS_DISPOSING removed
|
|
GST_OBJECT_FLOATING flag remove, GstObject is now GInitiallyUnowned
|
|
GST_OBJECT_IS_FLOATING removed, use g_object_is_floating()
|
|
|
|
GST_CLASS_GET_LOCK, GST_CLASS_LOCK, GST_CLASS_TRYLOCK, GST_CLASS_UNLOCK,
|
|
used to be a workaround for thread-unsafe glib < 2.8
|
|
|
|
gst_object_ref_sink() has gpointer as result to make it more like the
|
|
GObject version.
|
|
|
|
gst_object_sink() removed, use gst_object_ref_sink() instead.
|
|
|
|
gst_class_signal_connect() removed, was only used for XML
|
|
|
|
parent-set and parent-unset signals removed. Use notify:parent. Currently
|
|
still disabled because of deep notify locking issues.
|
|
|
|
* GstElement:
|
|
GstElementDetails is removed and replaced with more generic metadata.
|
|
|
|
gst_element_class_set_details_simple() -> gst_element_class_set_metadata()
|
|
gst_element_class_set_documentation_uri -> gst_element_class_add_metadata
|
|
gst_element_class_set_icon_name -> gst_element_class_add_metadata
|
|
|
|
gst_element_factory_get_longname -> gst_element_factory_get_metadata
|
|
gst_element_factory_get_klass -> gst_element_factory_get_metadata
|
|
gst_element_factory_get_description -> gst_element_factory_get_metadata
|
|
gst_element_factory_get_author -> gst_element_factory_get_metadata
|
|
gst_element_factory_get_documentation_uri -> gst_element_factory_get_metadata
|
|
gst_element_factory_get_icon_name -> gst_element_factory_get_metadata
|
|
|
|
gstelementmetadata.h contains the keys for all standard metadata.
|
|
|
|
Element metadata and pad templates are inherited from parent classes and
|
|
should be added in class_init instead of base_init.
|
|
|
|
gst_element_class_add_pad_template() takes ownership of the template
|
|
|
|
Elements that change the duration must post DURATION messages on the
|
|
bus when the duration changes in PAUSED or PLAYING.
|
|
|
|
* GstPad:
|
|
gst_pad_get_caps() does not return writable caps anymore and an explicit
|
|
gst_caps_make_writable() needs to be performed. This was the functionality
|
|
of gst_pad_get_caps_reffed(), which is removed now.
|
|
|
|
A similar change was done for gst_pad_peer_get_caps() and
|
|
gst_pad_peer_get_caps_reffed()
|
|
|
|
* GstMiniObject
|
|
A miniobject is now a simple refcounted structure holding the information
|
|
common to buffers, events, messages, queries and caps.
|
|
|
|
There is no more GST_TYPE_MINIOBJECT as the type for subclasses.
|
|
G_TYPE_BOXED can be used as the type of all GstMiniObject based types such
|
|
as buffers, events, messages, caps, etc. Signals, for example, would use the
|
|
boxed type if the argument include GstMiniObject derived types.
|
|
|
|
gst_mini_object_new() is removed. You would allocate memory with the the
|
|
methods specific for the derived type.
|
|
|
|
GstParamSpecMiniObject is removed, use boxed param spec now with the GType
|
|
of the specific GstMiniObject derived type. Also
|
|
gst_param_spec_mini_object().
|
|
|
|
gst_param_spec_mini_object() -> g_param_spec_boxed()
|
|
|
|
The specific gst_value_*_mini_object() methods are removed, used the generic
|
|
boxed methods instead.
|
|
|
|
gst_value_set_mini_object() -> g_value_set_boxed()
|
|
gst_value_take_mini_object() -> g_value_take_boxed()
|
|
gst_value_take_get_object() -> g_value_get_boxed()
|
|
gst_value_take_dup_object() -> g_value_dup_boxed()
|
|
|
|
The GST_MINI_OBJECT_READONLY flag was removed as it used to mark the
|
|
memory in buffers as READONLY. Marking memory READONLY can now be done
|
|
with the GstMemory API. Writability of miniobjects is now only done by using
|
|
the refcount.
|
|
|
|
* GstBuffer
|
|
A GstBuffer is now a simple boxed type this means that subclassing is not
|
|
possible anymore.
|
|
|
|
To add data to the buffer you would now use gst_buffer_take_memory() with
|
|
a GstMemory object containing the data. Multiple memory blocks can added to
|
|
a GstBuffer that can then be retrieved with gst_buffer_peek_memory().
|
|
|
|
GST_BUFFER_DATA(), GST_BUFFER_MALLOCDATA(), GST_BUFFER_FREE_FUNC() and
|
|
GST_BUFFER_SIZE() are gone, along with the fields in GstBuffer. Use the
|
|
memory API to get access to the buffer data. GST_BUFFER_SIZE() can be
|
|
replaced with gst_buffer_get_size() but if also access to the data is
|
|
required, gst_buffer_map() can return both the size and data in one go.
|
|
|
|
The most common way to access all the data in a buffer is by using
|
|
gst_buffer_map() and gst_buffer_unmap(). These calls require you to specify
|
|
the access mode required to the data and will automatically merge and return
|
|
a writable copy of the data.
|
|
|
|
The buffer must be writable (gst_buffer_is_writable()) in order to modify
|
|
the fields, metadata or buffer memory. gst_buffer_make_writable() will not
|
|
automatically make a writable copy of the memory but will instead increase
|
|
the refcount of the memory. The _map() and _peek_memory() methods will
|
|
automatically create writable copies when needed.
|
|
|
|
gst_buffer_make_metadata_writable() is gone, you can replace this safely
|
|
with gst_buffer_make_writable().
|
|
|
|
gst_buffer_create_sub() is gone and can be safely replaced with
|
|
gst_buffer_copy_region().
|
|
|
|
Changing the size of the buffer data can be done with gst_buffer_resize(),
|
|
which will also update the metadata fields correctly. gst_buffer_set_size()
|
|
is #defined to a special case of gst_buffer_resize() with a 0 offset.
|
|
|
|
gst_buffer_try_new_and_alloc() is replaced with gst_buffer_new_and_alloc(),
|
|
which now returns NULL when memory allocation fails.
|
|
|
|
* GstBufferList
|
|
The GstBufferList object is much simplified because most of the
|
|
functionality in the groups is now part of the GstMemory in buffers.
|
|
|
|
The object is reduced to encapsulating an array of buffers that you can send
|
|
with the regular gst_pad_push_list. The iterator is not needed anymore
|
|
because you can simply use gst_buffer_list_len() and gst_buffer_list_get()
|
|
to iterate the array.
|
|
|
|
For dealing with the groups, it's now needed to add the memory blocks to
|
|
GstBuffer and use the normal buffer API to get and merge the groups.
|
|
|
|
* GstEvent
|
|
* GstQuery
|
|
Boxed types derived from GstMiniObject.
|
|
|
|
* GstBufferList
|
|
Is now a boxed type derived from GstMiniObject.
|
|
|
|
* GstMessage
|
|
Is now a boxed type derived from GstMiniObject
|
|
|
|
* GstCaps
|
|
Is now a boxed type derived from GstMiniObject.
|
|
|
|
* GstTypeFind
|
|
gst_type_find_peek() returns a const guin8 * now.
|
|
|
|
* GstAdapter
|
|
gst_adapter_peek() is removed, use gst_adapter_map() and gst_adapter_unmap()
|
|
to get access to raw data from the adapter.
|
|
|
|
Arguments renamed from guint to gsize.
|
|
|
|
* GstBitReader, GstByteReader, GstByteWriter
|
|
gst_*_reader_new_from_buffer(), gst_*_reader_init_from_buffer() removed, get
|
|
access to the buffer data with _map() and then use the _new() functions.
|
|
|
|
gst_byte_reader_new_from_buffer() and gst_byte_reader_init_from_buffer()
|
|
removed, get access to the buffer data and then use the _new() functions.
|
|
|
|
* GstCollectPads
|
|
gst_collect_pads_read() removed, use _read_buffer() or _take_buffer() and
|
|
then use the memory API to get to the memory.
