 * @short_description: A device provider
 * @see_also: #GstDevice, #GstDeviceMonitor
 *
 * A #GstDeviceProvider subclass is provided by a plugin that handles devices
 * if there is a way to programmatically list connected devices. It can also
 * optionally provide updates to the list of connected devices.
 *
 * Each #GstDeviceProvider subclass is a singleton, a plugin should
 * normally provide a single subclass for all devices.
 *
 * Applications would normally use a #GstDeviceMonitor to monitor devices
 * from all relevant providers.
 *
 * Since: 1.4
