Description

GstDeviceProviderFactory is used to create instances of device providers. A GstDeviceProviderfactory can be added to a GstPlugin as it is also a GstPluginFeature.

Use the gst_device_provider_factory_find() and gst_device_provider_factory_get() functions to create device provider instances or use gst_device_provider_factory_get_by_name() as a convenient shortcut.

Functions

gst_device_provider_factory_find ()

GstDeviceProviderFactory *
gst_device_provider_factory_find (const gchar *name);

Search for an device provider factory of the given name. Refs the returned device provider factory; caller is responsible for unreffing.

Parameters

name

name of factory to find

Returns

GstDeviceProviderFactory if found, NULL otherwise.

gst_device_provider_factory_get ()

GstDeviceProvider *
gst_device_provider_factory_get (GstDeviceProviderFactory *factory);

Returns the device provider of the type defined by the given device providerfactory.

Parameters

factory

factory to instantiate

Returns

the GstDeviceProvider or NULL if the device provider couldn't be created.

gst_device_provider_factory_get_by_name ()

GstDeviceProvider *
gst_device_provider_factory_get_by_name
                               (const gchar *factoryname);

Returns the device provider of the type defined by the given device provider factory.

Parameters

factoryname

a named factory to instantiate

Returns

a GstDeviceProvider or NULL if unable to create device provider.

gst_device_provider_factory_get_device_provider_type ()

GType
gst_device_provider_factory_get_device_provider_type
                               (GstDeviceProviderFactory *factory);

Get the GType for device providers managed by this factory. The type can only be retrieved if the device provider factory is loaded, which can be assured with gst_plugin_feature_load().

Parameters

factory

factory to get managed GType from

Returns

the GType for device providers managed by this factory.

Since: 1.4

gst_device_provider_factory_get_metadata ()

const gchar *
gst_device_provider_factory_get_metadata
                               (GstDeviceProviderFactory *factory,
                                const gchar *key);

Get the metadata on factory with key .

Parameters

factory	a GstDeviceProviderFactory
key	a key

Returns

the metadata with key on factory or NULL when there was no metadata with the given key .

Since: 1.4

gst_device_provider_factory_get_metadata_keys ()

gchar **
gst_device_provider_factory_get_metadata_keys
                               (GstDeviceProviderFactory *factory);

Get the available keys for the metadata on factory .

Parameters

factory

a GstDeviceProviderFactory

Returns

a NULL-terminated array of key strings, or NULL when there is no metadata. Free with g_strfreev() when no longer needed.

gst_device_provider_factory_has_classes ()

gboolean
gst_device_provider_factory_has_classes
                               (GstDeviceProviderFactory *factory,
                                const gchar *classes);

Check if factory matches all of the given classes

Parameters

factory	a GstDeviceProviderFactory
classes	a "/" separate list of classes to match, only match if all classes are matched.	[allow-none]

Returns

TRUE if factory matches or if classes is NULL.

Since: 1.4

gst_device_provider_factory_has_classesv ()

gboolean
gst_device_provider_factory_has_classesv
                               (GstDeviceProviderFactory *factory,
                                gchar **classes);

Check if factory matches all of the given classes

Parameters

factory	a GstDeviceProviderFactory
classes	a `NULL` terminated array of classes to match, only match if all classes are matched.	[array zero-terminated=1][allow-none]

Returns

TRUE if factory matches.

Since: 1.4

gst_device_provider_factory_list_get_device_providers ()

GList *
gst_device_provider_factory_list_get_device_providers
                               (GstRank minrank);

Get a list of factories with a rank greater or equal to minrank . The list of factories is returned by decreasing rank.

Parameters

minrank

Minimum rank

Returns

a GList of GstDeviceProviderFactory device providers. Use gst_plugin_feature_list_free() after usage.
