GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 136408
gst_buffer_merge should take ownership of given buffers
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
I fixed a lot of memleaks because apps assume gst_buffer_merge takes ownership of the buffers (which make sense if you want them merged). It would be nice to make gst_buffer_merge take ownership of the given buffers, so this works like plugin developers expect it naively.
I've noticed and fixed several, too. I vote in favour.
Noted in docs/random/ds/0.9-proposed-changes. Any reason to keep the bug open?
No, unless we want to add a function that does this right now.
It seems silly not to just add it right now. gst_buffer_join().
