/**
* SECTION:gstregistry
* @short_description: Abstract base class for management of #GstPlugin objects
* @see_also: #GstPlugin, #GstPluginFeature
*
* One registry holds the metadata of a set of plugins.
*
* <emphasis role="bold">Design:</emphasis>
*
* The #GstRegistry object is a list of plugins and some functions for dealing
* with them. Each #GstPlugin is matched 1-1 with a file on disk, and may or may
* not be loaded at a given time. There may be multiple #GstRegistry objects,
* but the "default registry" is the only object that has any meaning to the
* core.
*
* The registry file is actually a cache of plugin information. This is
* unlike versions prior to 0.10, where the registry file was the primary source
* of plugin information, and was created by the gst-register command.
*
* The primary source, at all times, of plugin information is each plugin file
* itself. Thus, if an application wants information about a particular plugin,
* or wants to search for a feature that satisfies given criteria, the primary
* means of doing so is to load every plugin and look at the resulting
* information that is gathered in the default registry. Clearly, this is a time
* consuming process, so we cache information in the registry file. The format
* and location of the cache file is internal to gstreamer.
*
* On startup, plugins are searched for in the plugin search path. The following
* locations are checked in this order:
* <itemizedlist>
* <listitem>
* <para>location from --gst-plugin-path commandline option.</para>
* </listitem>
* <listitem>
* <para>the GST_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable.</para>
* </listitem>
* <listitem>
* <para>the GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH environment variable.</para>
* </listitem>
* <listitem>
* <para>default locations (if GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH is not set). Those
* default locations are:
* <filename>~/.gstreamer-$GST_MAJORMINOR/plugins/</filename>
* and <filename>$prefix/libs/gstreamer-$GST_MAJORMINOR/</filename>.
* </para>
* </listitem>
* </itemizedlist>
* The registry cache file is loaded from
* <filename>~/.gstreamer-$GST_MAJORMINOR/registry-$ARCH.bin</filename> or the
* file listed in the GST_REGISTRY env var. One reason to change the registry
* location is for testing.
*
* For each plugin that is found in the plugin search path, there could be 3
* possibilities for cached information:
* <itemizedlist>
* <listitem>
* <para>the cache may not contain information about a given file.</para>
* </listitem>
* <listitem>
* <para>the cache may have stale information.</para>
* </listitem>
* <listitem>
* <para>the cache may have current information.</para>
* </listitem>
* </itemizedlist>
*
* In the first two cases, the plugin is loaded and the cache updated. In
* addition to these cases, the cache may have entries for plugins that are not
* relevant to the current process. These are marked as not available to the
* current process. If the cache is updated for whatever reason, it is marked
* dirty.
*
* A dirty cache is written out at the end of initialization. Each entry is
* checked to make sure the information is minimally valid. If not, the entry is
* simply dropped.
*
* <emphasis role="bold">Implementation notes:</emphasis>
*
* The "cache" and "default registry" are different concepts and can represent
* different sets of plugins. For various reasons, at init time, the cache is
* stored in the default registry, and plugins not relevant to the current
* process are marked with the %GST_PLUGIN_FLAG_CACHED bit. These plugins are
* removed at the end of intitialization.
