Description Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2008-04-20 11:18:39 UTC 
Hi,
it would be nice if we could move the indexing and clock capabilities from GstElement to a separate interface as most GstElement subclasses don't provide that stuff anyway.

This would affect the following functions:
gboolean            gst_element_requires_clock          (GstElement *element);
gboolean            gst_element_set_clock               (GstElement *element,
                                                         GstClock *clock);
GstClock*           gst_element_get_clock               (GstElement *element);
gboolean            gst_element_provides_clock          (GstElement *element);
GstClock*           gst_element_provide_clock           (GstElement *element);

void                gst_element_set_index               (GstElement *element,
                                                         GstIndex *index);
GstIndex*           gst_element_get_index               (GstElement *element);
gboolean            gst_element_is_indexable            (GstElement *element);

Ack. This way we can also scrap some methods:
gst_element_is_indexable() -> GST_IS_INDEX(element);
gst_element_provides_clock() -> GST_IS_CLOCK_PROVIDER(element);

this won't work, for bins it is dynamic depending on the elements inside.
Comment 3 Wim Taymans 2011-11-29 16:12:11 UTC 
Implemented with element flags now in 0.11.
Comment 4 Tim-Philipp Müller 2012-04-14 12:07:55 UTC 
This can be closed then I guess..
