This interface abstracts handling of property sets for child elements. Imagine elements such as mixers or polyphonic generators. They all have multiple GstPad or some kind of voice objects. The element acts as a parent for those child objects. Each child has the same properties.
By implementing this interface the child properties can be accessed from the parent element by using gst_child_proxy_get() and gst_child_proxy_set().
Property names are written as "child-name::property-name". The whole naming scheme is recursive. Thus "child1::child2::property" is valid too, if "child1" also implements the GstChildProxy interface.

GstChildProxyInterface interface.
GTypeInterface parent; | parent interface type. |
get_child_by_index () | virtual method to fetch the child |
get_children_count () | virtual method to get the children count |
guint gst_child_proxy_get_children_count (GstChildProxy *parent);
Gets the number of child objects this parent contains.
parent : | the parent object |
Returns : | the number of child objects MT safe. |
GstObject* gst_child_proxy_get_child_by_name (GstChildProxy *parent, const gchar *name);
Looks up a child element by the given name.
Implementors can use GstObject together with gst_object_get_name()
parent : | the parent object to get the child from |
name : | the childs name |
Returns : | the child object or NULL if not found. Unref after usage. MT safe. |
GstObject* gst_child_proxy_get_child_by_index (GstChildProxy *parent, guint index);
Fetches a child by its number.
parent : | the parent object to get the child from |
index : | the childs position in the child list |
Returns : | the child object or NULL if not found (index too high). Unref after usage. MT safe. |
gboolean gst_child_proxy_lookup (GstObject *object, const gchar *name, GstObject **target, GParamSpec **pspec);
Looks up which object and GParamSpec would be effected by the given name.
object : | object to lookup the property in |
name : | name of the property to look up |
target : | pointer to a GstObject that takes the real object to set property on |
pspec : | pointer to take the GParamSpec describing the property |
Returns : | TRUE if target and pspec could be found. FALSE otherwise. In that case the values for pspec and target are not modified. Unref target after usage. MT safe. |
void gst_child_proxy_get_property (GstObject *object, const gchar *name, GValue *value);
Gets a single property using the GstChildProxy mechanism. You are responsible for for freeing it by calling g_value_unset()
object : | object to query |
name : | name of the property |
value : | an uninitialized GValue that should take the result. |
void gst_child_proxy_get_valist (GstObject *object, const gchar *first_property_name, va_list var_args);
Gets properties of the parent object and its children.
object : | the object to query |
first_property_name : | name of the first property to get |
var_args : | return location for the first property, followed optionally by more name/return location pairs, followed by NULL |
void gst_child_proxy_get (GstObject *object, const gchar *first_property_name, ...);
Gets properties of the parent object and its children.
object : | the parent object |
first_property_name : | name of the first property to get |
... : | return location for the first property, followed optionally by more name/return location pairs, followed by NULL |
void gst_child_proxy_set_property (GstObject *object, const gchar *name, const GValue *value);
Sets a single property using the GstChildProxy mechanism.
object : | the parent object |
name : | name of the property to set |
value : | new GValue for the property |
void gst_child_proxy_set_valist (GstObject *object, const gchar *first_property_name, va_list var_args);
Sets properties of the parent object and its children.
object : | the parent object |
first_property_name : | name of the first property to set |
var_args : | value for the first property, followed optionally by more name/value pairs, followed by NULL |
void gst_child_proxy_set (GstObject *object, const gchar *first_property_name, ...);
Sets properties of the parent object and its children.
object : | the parent object |
first_property_name : | name of the first property to set |
... : | value for the first property, followed optionally by more name/value pairs, followed by NULL |
void gst_child_proxy_child_added (GstObject *object, GstObject *child);
Emits the "child-added" signal.
object : | the parent object |
child : | the newly added child |
