public class FlowCombiner
extends ProxyInstance

Utility struct to help handling GstFlowReturn combination. Useful for GstElement<!-- -->s that have multiple source pads and need to combine the different GstFlowReturn for those pads.

GstFlowCombiner works by using the last GstFlowReturn for all GstPad it has in its list and computes the combined return value and provides it to the caller.

To add a new pad to the GstFlowCombiner use gst_flow_combiner_add_pad(). The new GstPad is stored with a default value of FlowReturn.OK.

In case you want a GstPad to be removed, use gst_flow_combiner_remove_pad().

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 GstPad<!-- -->s.

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

• FlowReturn.EOS: only if all returns are EOS too
• FlowReturn.NOT_LINKED: only if all returns are NOT_LINKED too
• FlowReturn.ERROR or below: if at least one returns an error return
• FlowReturn.NOT_NEGOTIATED: if at least one returns a not-negotiated return
• FlowReturn.FLUSHING: if at least one returns flushing
• FlowReturn.OK: otherwise

FlowReturn.ERROR or below, GST_FLOW_NOT_NEGOTIATED and GST_FLOW_FLUSHING are returned immediately from the gst_flow_combiner_update_flow() function.

Constructor Details

FlowCombiner

public FlowCombiner(MemorySegment address)

Create a FlowCombiner proxy instance for the provided memory address.

Parameters:

address - the memory address of the native object

FlowCombiner

public FlowCombiner()

Creates a new GstFlowCombiner, use gst_flow_combiner_free() to free it.

Method Details

getType

public static Type getType()

Get the GType of the FlowCombiner class

Returns:

the GType

addPad

public void addPad(Pad pad)

Adds a new GstPad to the GstFlowCombiner.

Parameters:

pad - the GstPad that is being added

clear

public void clear()

Removes all pads from a GstFlowCombiner and resets it to its initial state.

free

public void free()

Frees a GstFlowCombiner struct and all its internal data.

ref

public FlowCombiner ref()

Increments the reference count on the GstFlowCombiner.

Returns:

the GstFlowCombiner.

removePad

public void removePad(Pad pad)

Removes a GstPad from the GstFlowCombiner.

Parameters:

pad - the GstPad to remove

reset

public void reset()

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

unref

public void unref()

Decrements the reference count on the GstFlowCombiner.

updateFlow

public FlowReturn updateFlow(FlowReturn fret)

Computes the combined flow return for the pads in it.

The GstFlowReturn parameter should be the last flow return update for a pad in this GstFlowCombiner. 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 GstFlowReturn.

Parameters:

fret - the latest GstFlowReturn received for a pad in this GstFlowCombiner

Returns:

The combined GstFlowReturn

updatePadFlow

public FlowReturn updatePadFlow(Pad pad,
 FlowReturn fret)

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

The GstFlowReturn parameter should be the last flow return update for a pad in this GstFlowCombiner. 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 GstFlowReturn.

Parameters:

pad - the GstPad whose GstFlowReturn to update

fret - the latest GstFlowReturn received for a pad in this GstFlowCombiner

Returns:

The combined GstFlowReturn
