public abstract class Allocator
extends GstObject

Memory is usually created by allocators with a gst_allocator_alloc() method call. When null is used as the allocator, the default allocator will be used.

New allocators can be registered with gst_allocator_register(). Allocators are identified by name and can be retrieved with gst_allocator_find(). gst_allocator_set_default() can be used to change the default allocator.

New memory can be created with gst_memory_new_wrapped() that wraps the memory allocated elsewhere.

Constructor Details

Allocator

public Allocator(MemorySegment address)

Create a Allocator proxy instance for the provided memory address.

Parameters:

address - the memory address of the native object

Method Details

getType

public static Type getType()

Get the GType of the Allocator class

Returns:

the GType

getMemoryLayout

public static MemoryLayout getMemoryLayout()

The memory layout of the native struct.

Returns:

the memory layout

asParent

protected Allocator asParent()

Returns this instance as if it were its parent type. This is mostly synonymous to the Java super keyword, but will set the native typeclass function pointers to the parent type. When overriding a native virtual method in Java, "chaining up" with super.methodName() doesn't work, because it invokes the overridden function pointer again. To chain up, call asParent().methodName(). This will call the native function pointer of this virtual method in the typeclass of the parent type.

Overrides:

asParent in class GstObject

find

public static Allocator find(@Nullable
 @Nullable String name)

Find a previously registered allocator with name. When name is null, the default allocator will be returned.

Parameters:

name - the name of the allocator

Returns:

a GstAllocator or null when the allocator with name was not registered.

register

public static void register(String name,
 Allocator allocator)

Registers the memory allocator with name.

Parameters:

name - the name of the allocator

allocator - GstAllocator

alloc

public Memory alloc(long size,
 @Nullable
 @Nullable AllocationParams params)

Use this Allocator to allocate a new memory block with memory that is at least size big.

The optional params can specify the prefix and padding for the memory. If null is passed, no flags, no extra prefix/padding and a default alignment is used.

The prefix/padding will be filled with 0 if flags contains GST_MEMORY_FLAG_ZERO_PREFIXED and GST_MEMORY_FLAG_ZERO_PADDED respectively.

When this Allocator is null, the default allocator will be used.

The alignment in params is given as a bitmask so that align + 1 equals the amount of bytes to align to. For example, to align to 8 bytes, use an alignment of 7.

Parameters:

size - size of the visible memory area

params - optional parameters

Returns:

a new GstMemory.

free

public void free(Memory memory)

Free memory that was previously allocated with gst_allocator_alloc().

Parameters:

memory - the memory to free

setDefault

public void setDefault()

Set the default allocator.

builder

public static Allocator.Builder<? extends Allocator.Builder> builder()

A Allocator.Builder object constructs a Allocator with the specified properties. Use the various set...() methods to set properties, and finish construction with Allocator.Builder.build().
