GI.GstBase.Structs.FlowCombiner

Utility struct to help handling FlowReturn combination. Useful for Elements that have multiple source pads and need to combine the different FlowReturn for those pads.

FlowCombiner works by using the last FlowReturn for all Pad it has in its list and computes the combined return value and provides it to the caller.

To add a new pad to the FlowCombiner use flowCombinerAddPad. The new Pad is stored with a default value of FlowReturnOk.

In case you want a Pad to be removed, use flowCombinerRemovePad.

Please be aware that this struct isn't thread safe as its designed to be used by demuxers, those usually will have a single thread operating it.

These functions will take refs on the passed Pads.

Aside from reducing the user's code size, the main advantage of using this helper struct is to follow the standard rules for FlowReturn combination. These rules are:

• FlowReturnEos: only if all returns are EOS too
• FlowReturnNotLinked: only if all returns are NOT_LINKED too
• FlowReturnError or below: if at least one returns an error return
• FlowReturnNotNegotiated: if at least one returns a not-negotiated return
• FlowReturnFlushing: if at least one returns flushing
• FlowReturnOk: otherwise

FlowReturnError or below, GST_FLOW_NOT_NEGOTIATED and GST_FLOW_FLUSHING are returned immediately from the flowCombinerUpdateFlow function.

new

flowCombinerNew

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m)

=> m FlowCombiner

Returns: A new FlowCombiner

Creates a new FlowCombiner, use flowCombinerFree to free it.

ref

flowCombinerRef

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m)

=> FlowCombiner

combiner: the FlowCombiner to add a reference to.

-> m FlowCombiner

Returns: the FlowCombiner.

Increments the reference count on the FlowCombiner.

flowCombinerRemovePad

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsPad a)

=> FlowCombiner

combiner: the FlowCombiner

-> a

pad: the Pad to remove

-> m ()

Removes a Pad from the FlowCombiner.

Since: 1.4

reset

flowCombinerReset

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m)

=> FlowCombiner

combiner: the FlowCombiner to clear

-> m ()

Reset flow combiner and all pads to their initial state without removing pads.

Since: 1.6

unref

flowCombinerUnref

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m)

=> FlowCombiner

combiner: the FlowCombiner to unreference.

updateFlow

flowCombinerUpdateFlow

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m)

=> FlowCombiner

combiner: the FlowCombiner

-> FlowReturn

fret: the latest FlowReturn received for a pad in this FlowCombiner

-> m FlowReturn

Returns: The combined FlowReturn

Computes the combined flow return for the pads in it.

The FlowReturn parameter should be the last flow return update for a pad in this FlowCombiner. It will use this value to be able to shortcut some combinations and avoid looking over all pads again. e.g. The last combined return is the same as the latest obtained FlowReturn.

fret: the latest FlowReturn received for a pad in this FlowCombiner

-> m FlowReturn

Returns: The combined FlowReturn

Sets the provided pad's last flow return to provided value and computes the combined flow return for the pads in it.

The FlowReturn parameter should be the last flow return update for a pad in this FlowCombiner. It will use this value to be able to shortcut some combinations and avoid looking over all pads again. e.g. The last combined return is the same as the latest obtained FlowReturn.
