## Detailed Description

Gst::Pad - Object contained by elements that allows links to other elements.

A Gst::Element is linked to other elements via "pads", which are extremely light-weight generic link points. After two pads are retrieved from an element with Element::get_pad(), the pads can be link with link(). (For quick links, you can also use Element::link(), which will make the obvious link for you if it's straightforward.)

Pads are typically created from a Gst::PadTemplate with the create() method that takes a Gst::PadTemplate.

Pads have Gst::Caps attached to it to describe the media type they are capable of dealing with. get_caps() and set_caps() are used to manipulate the caps of the pads. Pads created from a pad template cannot set capabilities that are incompatible with the pad template capabilities.

Pads without pad templates can be created with create(), which takes a direction and a name as an argument.

get_parent_element() will retrieve the Gst::Element that owns the pad.

A Gst::Element creating a pad will typically use the underlying C API to register callbacks for various events on the pads.

Elements will use push() and pull_range() to push out or pull in a buffer.

To send a Gst::Event on a pad, use send_event() and push_event().

Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps> Gst::Pad::get_caps | ( |  | ) |

Gets the capabilities this pad can produce or consume.

Note that this method doesn't necessarily return the caps set by set_caps() - use GST_PAD_CAPS() for that instead. gst_pad_get_caps returns all possible caps a pad can operate with, using the pad's get_caps function; this returns the pad template caps if not explicitly set.

MT safe.

Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps> Gst::Pad::get_negotiated_caps | ( |  | ) |

Gets the capabilities of the media type that currently flows through pad and its peer.

This function can be used on both src and sinkpads. Note that srcpads are always negotiated before sinkpads so it is possible that the negotiated caps on the srcpad do not match the negotiated caps of the peer.

Returns:
  The negotiated Gst::Caps of the pad link. Unref the caps when you no longer need it. This function returns `0` when the pad has no peer or is not negotiated yet.

bool Gst::Pad::set_caps | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps>& | caps | ) |

Sets the capabilities of this pad.

The caps must be fixed. Any previous caps on the pad will be unreffed. This function refs the caps so you should unref if as soon as you don't need it anymore. It is possible to set `0` caps, which will make the pad unnegotiated again.

Parameters:

  | caps | A Gst::Caps to set.

Returns:
  `true` if the caps could be set. `false` if the caps were not fixed or bad parameters were provided to this function.

MT safe.

Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Pad> Gst::Pad::get_peer | ( |  | ) |

Gets the peer of pad.

This function refs the peer pad so you need to unref it after use.

Glib::RefPtr<const Gst::Caps> Gst::Pad::peer_get_caps | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the capabilities of the peer connected to this pad.

Returns:
  The Gst::Caps of the peer pad. This function returns a new caps, so use gst_caps_unref to get rid of it. this function returns `0` if there is no peer pad.

void Gst::Pad::use_fixed_caps | ( |  | ) |

A helper function you can use that sets the gst_pad_get_fixed_caps_func as the getcaps function for the pad.

This way the function will always return the negotiated caps or in case the pad is not negotiated, the padtemplate caps.

Use this function on a pad that, once _set_caps() has been called on it, cannot be renegotiated to something else.

bool Gst::Pad::is_active | ( |  | ) | const

Query if a pad is active.

Returns:
  `true` if the pad is active.

MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::set_blocked | ( | bool | blocked = `true` | ) |

Blocks or unblocks the dataflow on a pad.

This function is a shortcut for set_blocked_async() with a `0` callback.

Parameters:

  | blocked | Boolean indicating we should block or unblock.

Returns:
  `true` if the pad could be blocked. This function can fail if the wrong parameters were passed or the pad was already in the requested state.

MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::set_blocked_async | ( | const SlotBlock& | slot,
|  | bool | blocked = `true` |
| ) |  |  |

Blocks or unblocks the dataflow on a pad asynchronously.

The provided slot is called when the operation succeeds; this happens right before the next attempt at pushing a buffer on the pad.

This can take a while as the pad can only become blocked when real dataflow is happening. When the pipeline is stalled, for example in PAUSED, this can take an indeterminate amount of time. Be careful with this blocking call as it might not return for reasons stated above.

Parameters:

  | slot | SlotBlock that will be called when the operation succeeds.
  | blocked | boolean indicating whether the pad should be blocked or unblocked.

Returns:
  true if the pad could be blocked. This function can fail if the pad was already in the requested state. MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::is_blocked | ( |  | ) | const

Checks if the pad is blocked or not.

This function returns the last requested state of the pad. It is not certain that the pad is actually blocking at this point (see is_blocking()).

Returns:
  `true` if the pad is blocked.

MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::is_blocking | ( |  | ) | const

Checks if the pad is blocking or not.

This is a guaranteed state of whether the pad is actually blocking on a Gst::Buffer or a Gst::Event.

Returns:
  `true` if the pad is blocking.

MT safe.

Since: 0.10.11.

gulong Gst::Pad::add_data_probe | ( | const SlotData& | slot | ) |

Adds a "data probe" to a pad.

The slot will be called whenever data passes through a pad. In this case data means both events and buffers. The probe will be called with the data as an argument. Note that the data will have a reference count greater than 1, so it will be immutable -- you must not change it.

For source pads, the probe will be called after the blocking function, if any (see set_blocked_async()), but before looking up the peer to chain to. For sink pads, the probe function will be called before configuring the sink with new caps, if any, and before calling the pad's chain function.

Your data probe should return true to let the data continue to flow, or false to drop it. Dropping data is rarely useful, but occasionally comes in handy with events.

To remove a probe, use the appropriate function, such as remove_data_probe().

Parameters:

FlowReturn Gst::Pad::alloc_buffer | ( | guint64 | offset,
|  | int | size,
|  | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps>& | caps,
|  | Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Buffer>& | buf |
| ) |  |  |

Allocates a new, empty buffer optimized to push to pad pad.

This function only works if pad is a source pad and has a peer.

A new, empty Gst::Buffer will be put in the buf argument. You need to check the caps of the buffer after performing this function and renegotiate to the format if needed.

Parameters:

  | offset | The offset of the new buffer in the stream.
  | size | The size of the new buffer.
  | caps | The caps of the new buffer.
  | buf | An uninitialized Glib::RefPtr<> in which to store the new Gst::Buffer.

Returns:
  A result code indicating success of the operation. Any result code other than Gst::FLOW_OK is an error and buf should not be used. An error can occur if the pad is not connected or when the downstream peer elements cannot provide an acceptable buffer. MT safe.

FlowReturn Gst::Pad::alloc_buffer_and_set_caps | ( | guint64 | offset,
|  | int | size,
|  | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps>& | caps,
|  | Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Buffer>& | buf |
| ) |  |  |

In addition to the function alloc_buffer(), this function automatically calls set_caps() when the caps of the newly allocated buffer are different from the pad caps.

Again, the pad must be a source pad.

Parameters:

  | offset | The offset of the new buffer in the stream.
  | size | The size of the new buffer.
  | caps | The caps of the new buffer.
  | buf | An uninitialized Glib::RefPtr<> in which to store the new Gst::Buffer.

Returns:
  A result code indicating success of the operation. Any result code other than Gst::FLOW_OK is an error and buf should not be used. An error can occur if the pad is not connected or when the downstream peer elements cannot provide an acceptable buffer. MT safe.

FlowReturn Gst::Pad::get_range | ( | guint64 | offset,
|  | guint | size,
|  | Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Buffer>& | buffer |
| ) |  |  |

When pad is flushing this function returns Gst::FLOW_WRONG_STATE immediatly.

Calls the getrange function of pad. If pad has no getrange function installed this function returns Gst::FLOW_NOT_SUPPORTED.

This is a lowlevel function. Usually pull_range() is used. This function is designed to be used with a source pad only.

Parameters:

  | offset | The start offset of the buffer.
  | size | The length of the buffer.
  | buffer | An unitialized Glib::RefPtr<> in which to store the Gst::Buffer.

Returns:
  A Gst::FlowReturn from the pad (Gst::FLOW_NOT_SUPPORTED if pad is not a source pad). MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::accept_caps | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<const Gst::Caps>& | caps | ) | const

Check if the given pad accepts the caps.

Parameters:

  | caps | A Gst::Caps to check on the pad.

Returns:
  `true` if the pad can accept the caps.

Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps> Gst::Pad::proxy_getcaps | ( |  | ) |

Calls get_allowed_caps() for every other pad belonging to the same element as pad, and returns the intersection of the results.

This function is useful as a default getcaps function for an element that can handle any stream format, but requires all its pads to have the same caps. Two such elements are tee and aggregator.

Returns:
  The intersection of the other pads' allowed caps.

Glib::RefPtr<const Gst::Caps> Gst::Pad::proxy_getcaps | ( |  | ) | const

Calls get_allowed_caps() for every other pad belonging to the same element as pad, and returns the intersection of the results.

This function is useful as a default getcaps function for an element that can handle any stream format, but requires all its pads to have the same caps. Two such elements are tee and aggregator.

Returns:
  The intersection of the other pads' allowed caps.

bool Gst::Pad::proxy_setcaps | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps>& | caps | ) |

Calls set_caps() for every other pad belonging to the same element as pad.

If set_caps() fails on any pad, the proxy setcaps fails. May be used only during negotiation.

Parameters:

  | caps | The Gst::Caps to link with.

Returns:
  `true` if sucessful.

void Gst::Pad::fixate_caps | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Caps>& | caps | ) |

Fixate a caps on the given pad.

Modifies the caps in place, so you should make sure that the caps are actually writable (see gst_caps_make_writable()).

Parameters:

  | caps | The Gst::Caps to fixate.

bool Gst::Pad::peer_accept_caps | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<const Gst::Caps>& | caps | ) | const

Check if the peer of pad accepts caps.

If pad has no peer, this function Returns: `true` if the peer of pad can accept the caps or pad has no peer.

Parameters:

  | caps | A Gst::Caps to check on the pad.

Returns:
  `true` if the peer of pad can accept the caps or pad has no peer.

FlowReturn Gst::Pad::push | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Buffer>& | buffer | ) |

Pushes a buffer to the peer of the pad.

The pad must be a source pad, otherwise this method returns Gst::FLOW_ERROR.

This function will call an installed pad block before triggering any installed pad probes.

If the caps on buffer are different from the currently configured caps on pad, this function will call any installed setcaps function on pad (see the C API gst_pad_set_setcaps_function()). In case of failure to renegotiate the new format, this function returns Gst::FLOW_NOT_NEGOTIATED.

The function proceeds calling chain() on the peer pad and returns the value from that function. If pad has no peer, Gst::FLOW_NOT_LINKED will be returned.

Parameters:

  | buffer | The Gst::Buffer to push.

Returns:
  A Gst::FlowReturn from the peer pad. MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::push_event | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Event>& | event | ) |

Sends the event to the peer of the pad.

This function is mainly used by elements to send events to their peer elements.

Parameters:

  | event | The GstEvent to send to the pad.

Returns:
  true if the event was handled. MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::check_pull_range | ( |  | ) | const

Checks if a pull_range() can be performed on the peer source pad.

This function is used by plugins that want to check if they can use random access on the peer source pad.

The peer sourcepad can implement a custom Gst::PadCheckGetRangeFunction if it needs to perform some logic to determine if pull_range is possible.

Returns:
  A `bool` with the result.

MT safe.

FlowReturn Gst::Pad::pull_range | ( | guint64 | offset,
|  | guint | size,
|  | Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Buffer>& | buffer |
| ) |  |  |

Pulls a buffer from the peer pad.

This function will first trigger the pad block signal if it was installed. This method works only on sink pads.

When pad is not linked Gst::FLOW_NOT_LINKED is returned else this function returns the result of get_range() on the peer pad.

buffer's caps must either be unset or the same as what is already configured on pad. Renegotiation within a running pull-mode pipeline is not supported.

Parameters:

  | offset | The start offset of the buffer.
  | size | The length of the buffer.
  | buffer | An uninitialized Glib::RefPtr<> in which to hold the Gst::Buffer.

Returns:
  A Gst::FlowReturn from the peer pad (Gst::FLOW_ERROR if pad is not a sink pad). When this function returns Gst::FLOW_OK, buffer will contain a valid Gst::Buffer. buffer may not be used when any other return value than Gst::FLOW_OK is returned. MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::activate_pull | ( | bool | active = `true` | ) |

Activates or deactivates the given pad in pull mode via dispatching to the pad's activatepullfunc.

For use from within pad activation functions only. When called on sink pads, will first proxy the call to the peer pad, which is expected to activate its internally linked pads from within its activate_pull function.

If you don't know what this is, you probably don't want to call it.

Parameters:

  | active | Whether or not the pad should be active.

Returns:
  `true` if the operation was successful.

MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::activate_push | ( | bool | active = `true` | ) |

Activates or deactivates the given pad in push mode via dispatching to the pad's activatepushfunc.

For use from within pad activation functions only.

If you don't know what this is, you probably don't want to call it.

Parameters:

  | active | Whether the pad should be active or not.

Returns:
  `true` if the operation was successful.

MT safe.

bool Gst::Pad::send_event | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Event>& | event | ) |

Sends the event to the pad.

This function can be used by applications to send events in the pipeline.

If the pad is a source pad, event should be an upstream event. If the pad is a sink pad, the event should be a downstream event. For example, you would not send a Gst::EVENT_EOS on a src pad; EOS events only propagate downstream. Furthermore, some downstream events have to be serialized with data flow, like EOS, while some can travel out-of-band, like Gst::EVENT_FLUSH_START. If the event needs to be serialized with data flow, this function will take the pad's stream lock while calling its event function.

To find out whether an event type is upstream, downstream, or downstream and serialized, see Gst::EventTypeFlags, Gst::Enums::get_flags(), is_upstream(), Gst::Event::is_downstream(), and Gst::Event::is_serialized(). Note that in practice that an application or plugin doesn't need to bother itself with this information; the core handles all necessary locks and checks.

Parameters:

  | event | The Gst::Event to send to the pad.

Returns:
  true if the event was handled.

bool Gst::Pad::event_default | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Event>& | event | ) |

Invokes the default event handler for the given pad.

End-of-stream and discontinuity events are handled specially, and then the event is sent to all pads internally linked to pad. Note that if there are many possible sink pads that are internally linked to pad, only one will be sent an event. Multi-sinkpad elements should implement custom event handlers.

Parameters:

  | event | The Gst::Event to handle.

Returns:
  `true` if the event was sent succesfully.

bool Gst::Pad::query | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Query>& | query | ) | const

Dispatches a query to a pad.

The query should have been allocated by the caller via one of the type-specific allocation functions in gstquery.h. The element is responsible for filling the query with an appropriate response, which should then be parsed with a type-specific query parsing function.

Again, the caller is responsible for both the allocation and deallocation of the query structure.

Parameters:

  | query | The Gst::Query to perform.

Returns:
  `true` if the query could be performed.

bool Gst::Pad::peer_query | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Query>& | query | ) | const
