gstreamermm Reference Manual

0.10.7.1

description

gstreamermm provides C++ bindings for the GStreamer streaming multimedia library. With gstreamermm it is possible to develop applications that work with multimedia in C++.

features

gstreamermm is developed over glibmm, libsigc++ and libxml++ and the functionalities they provide. This means that, among other things, referencing and unreferencing of GObjects is handled automatically via glibmm's automatic pointer class, Glib:RefPtr<>, and libsigc++'s slots are used for callbacks and signals.

basics

Include the gstreamermm header:

 #include <gstreamermm.h>

(You may include individual headers, such as gstreamermm/pipeline.h instead.)

If your source file is program.cc, you can compile it with:

 g++ program.cc -o program `pkg-config --cflags --libs gstreamermm-0.10`

Alternatively, if using autoconf, use the following in configure.ac:

 PKG_CHECK_MODULES([GSTREAMERMM], [gstreamermm-0.10])

Then use the generated GSTREAMERMM_CFLAGS and GSTREAMERMM_LIBS variables in the project Makefile.am files. For example:

 program_CPPFLAGS = $(GSTREAMERMM_CFLAGS)
 program_LDADD = $(GSTREAMERMM_LIBS)
