Detailed Description

A class that gets a pipeline from a text pipeline description.

The methods in this class allow to create a pipeline based on the syntax used in the gst-launch utillity.

Member Function Documentation

static Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Element> Gst::Parse::create_bin ( const Glib::ustring &  bin_description, bool  ghost_unconnected_pads  )

static

This is a convenience wrapper around launch() to create a Gst::Bin from a gst-launch-style pipeline description.

See launch() and the gst-launch man page for details about the syntax. Ghost pads on the bin for unconnected source or sink pads within the bin can automatically be created (but only a maximum of one ghost pad for each direction will be created; if you expect multiple unconnected source pads or multiple unconnected sink pads and want them all ghosted, you will have to create the ghost pads yourself).

Parameters

bin_description	Command line describing the bin.
ghost_unconnected_pads	Whether to automatically create ghost pads for unconnected source or sink pads within the bin.
err	Where to store the error message in case of an error.

Returns

A newly-created bin, or a null RefPtr<> if an error occurred.

Exceptions

Gst::CoreError
Gst::ParseError

static Glib::QueryQuark Gst::Parse::error_quark ( )

static

Get the error quark used by the parsing subsystem.

Returns

The quark of the parse errors.

static Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Element> Gst::Parse::launch ( const Glib::ustring &  pipeline_description )

static

Create a new pipeline based on command line syntax.

Please note that you might get a return value that is not a null RefPtr<> even though the error is set. In this case there was a recoverable parsing error and you can try to play the pipeline.

Parameters

pipeline_description	The command line describing the pipeline.
error	The error message in case of an erroneous pipeline.

Returns

A new element on success, a null RefPtr<> on failure. If more than one toplevel element is specified by the pipeline_description, all elements are put into a Gst::Pipeline, which than is returned.

Exceptions

Gst::CoreError
Gst::ParseError

static Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Element> Gst::Parse::launchv ( const gchar *  argv[] )

static

Create a new element based on command line syntax.

An error does not mean that the pipeline could not be constructed.

Parameters

argv	null-terminated array of arguments.
error	Will contain an error message if an erroneuos pipeline is specified.

Returns

A new element on success and null on failure.

Exceptions

Gst::CoreError
Gst::ParseError
