public abstract class DeviceProvider
extends GstObject

A GstDeviceProvider subclass is provided by a plugin that handles devices if there is a way to programmatically list connected devices. It can also optionally provide updates to the list of connected devices.

Each GstDeviceProvider subclass is a singleton, a plugin should normally provide a single subclass for all devices.

Applications would normally use a GstDeviceMonitor to monitor devices from all relevant providers.

1.4

Constructor Details

DeviceProvider

public DeviceProvider(MemorySegment address)

Create a DeviceProvider proxy instance for the provided memory address.

Parameters:

address - the memory address of the native object

DeviceProvider

public DeviceProvider()

Creates a new DeviceProvider.

Method Details

getType

public static @Nullable Type getType()

Get the GType of the DeviceProvider class

Returns:

the GType

getMemoryLayout

public static MemoryLayout getMemoryLayout()

The memory layout of the native struct.

Returns:

the memory layout

asParent

protected DeviceProvider 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

register

public static boolean register(@Nullable Plugin plugin,
 String name,
 int rank,
 Type type)

Create a new device providerfactory capable of instantiating objects of the type and add the factory to plugin.

Parameters:

plugin - GstPlugin to register the device provider with, or null for a static device provider.

name - name of device providers of this type

rank - rank of device provider (higher rank means more importance when autoplugging)

type - GType of device provider to register

Returns:

true, if the registering succeeded, false on error

Since:

1.4

canMonitor

public boolean canMonitor()

deviceAdd

public void deviceAdd(Device device)

Posts a message on the provider's GstBus to inform applications that a new device has been added.

This is for use by subclasses.

device's reference count will be incremented, and any floating reference will be removed (see gst_object_ref_sink()).

Parameters:

device - a GstDevice that has been added

Since:

1.4

deviceChanged

public void deviceChanged(Device device,
 Device changedDevice)

This function is used when changedDevice was modified into its new form device. This will post a DEVICE_CHANGED message on the bus to let the application know that the device was modified. GstDevice is immutable for MT. safety purposes so this is an "atomic" way of letting the application know when a device was modified.

Parameters:

device - the new version of changedDevice

changedDevice - the old version of the device that has been updated

Since:

1.16

deviceRemove

public void deviceRemove(Device device)

Posts a message on the provider's GstBus to inform applications that a device has been removed.

This is for use by subclasses.

Parameters:

device - a GstDevice that has been removed

Since:

1.4

getBus

public Bus getBus()

Gets the GstBus of this GstDeviceProvider

Returns:

a GstBus

Since:

1.4

getDevices

public List<Device> getDevices()

Gets a list of devices that this provider understands. This may actually probe the hardware if the provider is not currently started.

If the provider has been started, this will returned the same GstDevice objedcts that have been returned by the GST_MESSAGE_DEVICE_ADDED messages.

Returns:

a GList of GstDevice

Since:

1.4

getFactory

public @Nullable DeviceProviderFactory getFactory()

Retrieves the factory that was used to create this device provider.

Returns:

the GstDeviceProviderFactory used for creating this device provider. no refcounting is needed.

Since:

1.4

getHiddenProviders

public String[] getHiddenProviders()

Get the provider factory names of the GstDeviceProvider instances that are hidden by provider.

Returns:

a list of hidden providers factory names or null when nothing is hidden by provider. Free with g_strfreev.

Since:

1.6

getMetadata

public String getMetadata(String key)

Get metadata with key in provider.

Parameters:

key - the key to get

Returns:

the metadata for key.

Since:

1.14

hideProvider

public void hideProvider(String name)

Make this DeviceProvider hide the devices from the factory with name.

This function is used when this DeviceProvider will also provide the devices reported by provider factory name. A monitor should stop monitoring the device provider with name to avoid duplicate devices.

Parameters:

name - a provider factory name

Since:

1.6

isStarted

public boolean isStarted()

This function can be used to know if the this DeviceProvider was successfully started.

Since:

1.20

start

public boolean start()

Starts providering the devices. This will cause GST_MESSAGE_DEVICE_ADDED and GST_MESSAGE_DEVICE_REMOVED messages to be posted on the provider's bus when devices are added or removed from the system.

Since the GstDeviceProvider is a singleton, gst_device_provider_start() may already have been called by another user of the object, gst_device_provider_stop() needs to be called the same number of times.

After this function has been called, gst_device_provider_get_devices() will return the same objects that have been received from the GST_MESSAGE_DEVICE_ADDED messages and will no longer probe.

Returns:

true if the device providering could be started

Since:

1.4

stop

public void stop()

Decreases the use-count by one. If the use count reaches zero, this GstDeviceProvider will stop providering the devices. This needs to be called the same number of times that gst_device_provider_start() was called.

Since:

1.4

unhideProvider

public void unhideProvider(String name)

Make this DeviceProvider unhide the devices from factory name.

This function is used when this DeviceProvider will no longer provide the devices reported by provider factory name. A monitor should start monitoring the devices from provider factory name in order to see all devices again.

Parameters:

name - a provider factory name

Since:

1.6

probe

protected List<MemorySegment> probe()

Returns a list of devices that are currently available. This should never block. The devices should not have a parent and should be floating.
