Description Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2016-05-15 11:31:56 UTC 
... which use our printf stuff and can thus use GST_PTR_FORMAT.
Comment 1 Tim-Philipp Müller 2016-05-15 11:41:30 UTC 
I suggested gst_print() + gst_printerr() a while back as well, I think those would be useful.

I don't know about gst_println()/printerrln(), seems a bit over the top, it's a minor inconvenience, no? What's the point here? So you can easily convert to GST_LOG statements?
Comment 2 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2016-05-15 12:10:56 UTC 
Convenience and it's easy enough to add :) Also most other languages and libraries have a print and println/print_line function, simply because you usually always want to print with a "\n" at the end.
