Hi, I use appsrc, and need set caps for appsrc, but such below:

	GstCaps * gany;
	gany = gst_caps_new_any();
	if (TRUE == gst_caps_is_any(gany))
	{
		g_print("any");
                g_object_set(source, "caps", gany, NULL);
	}
	else
	{

		g_print("not any!");
	}

//I use old version 0.10.36, gst_caps_is_any is true,
but use 1.x,  gst_caps_is_any is false!

Nice catch, thanks for the bug report!

Most people seem to just do

   if (gst_caps_is_any (caps)) { ... }

which luckily works :)

    caps: gst_caps_is_any() should return TRUE or FALSE
    
    Not some flag value instead of TRUE. Fixes code like
    gst_caps_is_any() == TRUE.
