GstURI not used
Last modified: 2005-11-22 13:58:26 UTC
Please describe the problem: gsturitype.[ch] creates a new static GType for GstURI (which is just a string)... but it isn't used anywhere. According to Wim, this was done for GUI, so that when you see this type of property, you know you can open a File selector or such. We should either : Get rid of it alltogether, or Implement it properly in the GstURIHandler. Steps to reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
After thinking over this once more, this should be removed, because we already have a system for GUI to know if a plugin handles URIs and how to do that : the GstURIHandler ! I'll go over the sink/source plugins that handle URIs and make sure they implement the interface properly so we can finally get rid of this.
I created a new bug for implementing GstURIHandler in all relevent source/sink elements : 322127 Currently all elements that implemented GstURIHandler implement it correctly (in sink with the element properties).
Removed all ocurrencies of GstURI in core. Closing bug
