An interface to ease URI handling in plugins.
The Gst::URIHandler is an interface that is implemented by Source and Sink Gst::Element to simplify then handling of URI.
An application can use the following functions to quickly get an element that handles the given URI for reading or writing (make_element_from_uri()).
Source and Sink plugins should implement this interface when possible.

( |
const Glib::ustring & |
protocol, |
|
|
const Glib::ustring & |
location |
|
) |
| |
|
static |
Constructs a URI for a given valid protocol and location.
Free-function: g_free
- Parameters
-
protocol | Protocol for URI. |
location | Location for URI. |
- Returns
- A new string for this URI. Returns
0
if the given URI protocol is not valid, or the given location is 0
.
§ filename_to_uri()
static Glib::ustring Gst::URIHandler::filename_to_uri |
( |
const Glib::ustring & |
filename | ) |
|
|
static |
Similar to Glib::filename_to_uri(), but attempts to handle relative file paths as well.
Before converting filename into an URI, it will be prefixed by the current working directory if it is a relative path, and then the path will be canonicalised so that it doesn't contain any './' or '../' segments.
On Windows #filename should be in UTF-8 encoding.
- Parameters
-
filename | Absolute or relative file name path. |
§ get_location()
static Glib::ustring Gst::URIHandler::get_location |
( |
const Glib::ustring & |
uri | ) |
|
|
static |
Extracts the location out of a given valid URI, ie.
the protocol and "://" are stripped from the URI, which means that the location returned includes the hostname if one is specified. The returned string must be freed using Glib::free().
Free-function: g_free
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- The location for this URI. Returns
0
if the URI isn't valid. If the URI does not contain a location, an empty string is returned.
§ get_protocol()
static Glib::ustring Gst::URIHandler::get_protocol |
( |
const Glib::ustring & |
uri | ) |
|
|
static |
Extracts the protocol out of a given valid URI.
The returned string must be freed using Glib::free().
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- The protocol for this URI.
§ get_protocols()
std::vector<Glib::ustring> Gst::URIHandler::get_protocols |
( |
| ) |
const |
Gets the list of protocols supported by handler.
This list may not be modified.
- Returns
- The supported protocols. Returns
0
if the handler isn't implemented properly, or the handler doesn't support any protocols.
§ get_protocols_vfunc()

§ get_uri()
Glib::ustring Gst::URIHandler::get_uri |
( |
| ) |
const |
Gets the currently handled URI.
- Returns
- The URI currently handled by the handler. Returns
0
if there are no URI currently handled. The returned string must be freed with Glib::free() when no longer needed.
§ get_uri_type()
URIType Gst::URIHandler::get_uri_type |
( |
| ) |
const |
Gets the type of the given URI handler.
- Returns
- The Gst::URIType of the URI handler. Returns Gst::URI_UNKNOWN if the handler isn't implemented correctly.
§ get_uri_vfunc()
virtual Glib::ustring Gst::URIHandler::get_uri_vfunc |
( |

const |
|
virtual |
Virtual method which should be implemented to return the URI currently handled by the element.

Creates an element for handling the given URI.
- Parameters
-
type | Whether to create a source or a sink. |
uri | URI to create an element for. |

type, |
|
|
const Glib::ustring & |
protocol |
|
) |
| |
|
static |
Checks if an element exists that supports the given URI protocol.
Note that a positive return value does not imply that a subsequent call to Gst::Element::make_from_uri() is guaranteed to work.
- Parameters
-
type | Whether to check for a source or a sink. |
protocol | Protocol that should be checked for (e.g. "http" or "smb"). |
- Returns
true
.
§ protocol_is_valid()
static bool Gst::URIHandler::protocol_is_valid |

Protocols must consist of alphanumeric characters, '+', '-' and '.' and must start with a alphabetic character. See RFC 3986 Section 3.1.

otherwise.
