        Remove threadsafe properties. Fix elements because GObject
        complains when installing a property before declaring a
        set/get_property handler.
        Rearrange gstelement.h file, use STATE macros for state locks.
        Free mutexes in the finalize method instead of dispose.

          When we're recursing into a chain run, only run the directly
          related group, not all queued ones. This will fix a possible

          GST_RPAD_* will only operate on a RealPad (it casts the pointer,
          it doesn't actually check the contents), so be sure to hand it
          a RealPad else we'll crash.

        Reverted to 1.110 until this makes the testsuite and various
        apps work.

          in some cases (arrays), the fixedness depends on the content.

        Ref the thread object in the GThread mainloop. Break out of the
        thread mainloop if it holds the last ref. This properly exits
        the threads when disposing the thread from its own context. It
        also avoids possible deadlocks in the dispose function.

        caps to the source.
        * gst/gstbin.c (gst_bin_set_element_sched)
        (gst_bin_unset_element_sched): Make sure that all elements and
        links are registered and unregistered with the scheduler exactly
        once. This elaborates on a fix by Benjamin Otte, but
        guarantees that decoupled elements are also registered.

          value array sizes. Use this in gst_structure_copy to get rid of
          reallocs.
          don't do quark=>string=>quark when copying structures

        147713.
        Partially revert patch 1.89. When adding a loop based element to 
        the scheduler, the links to other groups are automatically followed
        and incremented. This should not happen because the bin will call
        pad_link explicitly for those connection, resulting in them counted 
        twice. Results in assertion failure on pipeline cleanup.

        * gst/gstpad.c (gst_pad_try_set_caps): Naive link functions (such
        as gst_pad_proxy_pad_link) just link to every other pad when they
        are called. In the case where the graph has cycles, this will mean
        that a call to try_set_caps will recurse. Allow this recursion
        and return OK, while we wait for the first try_set_caps to give a
        proper return value.
        (gst_pad_link_call_link_functions): Since this function is the
        only one to set the NEGOTIATING flag on a pad, if the flag is set
        it means that the link functions have indirectly recursed. If this
        happens, error out to avoid infinite recursion and an eventual
        SEGV.
        (gst_real_pad_class_init): Remove a crufty GtkObject comment.
        (gst_pad_proxy_getcaps): Intersect the result with the template

        change the set of children.
        (set_kid_state_func): New static function.
        (gst_bin_change_state): Use gst_bin_foreach to call
        set_kid_state_func. Fixes a bug: if a child had a state-change
        handler that removes it from the bin, there would be a segfault.
        Hopefully it should also work in the case where the state-change

        * gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_set_state):
          compatibility fix for latest plugins release.  Change loop back
          to while {}

        * gst/gstbin.c: (gst_bin_remove), (gst_bin_dispose):
        * gst/gstthread.c: (gst_thread_dispose), (gst_thread_catch),
        (gst_thread_main_loop):
        Since remove is virtual in GstBin we must not assume the 
        elements GList to have anothing useful.
        Add some more logging to GstThread and be a bit more paranoid
        when resetting the scheduler.
        Set the state of the bin to NULL before removing the children.

          rework so that for bins we try to set the state on all children
          as well even if the bin is in the correct state already.
          change while to do so at least one iteration is done.
          For regular elements, we fall back to the previous behaviour for
          now since we first need a new plugins release.

        (gst_pad_link_prepare):
          check that pads that get linked belong to the same manager. The old
          code allowed linking elements before putting them into bins, so it
          worked to link them and then put them in different threads, which
          lead to weird behaviour.
          Since this effectively disallows linking elements before putting
          them in a bin, some applications might not work after this and error
          out. If these applications are too critical, we might need to revert
          that patch. Please test this before the next release...

        structures. 
         - adding an enabled group to a chain should increment the
           number of enabled elements in that chain.
         - removing an enabled group from a chain could disable the

         - removing a disabled group from a chain could enable the

         - adding an element to a group could increase the number of
           links this group has with other groups.
         - merging two groups also merges the chains.
         - also show group links in the _show method.

          s/xvideosink/xvimagesink - this test looks a lot like we should
          disable it

        * libs/gst/bytestream/Makefile.am:

        support.  In particular, glib headers define some inlines
        that need G_LOG_DOMAIN defined.  Additional fixes for MSVC

        * gst/schedulers/gstoptimalscheduler.c: (remove_from_group),
        (group_dec_link), (gst_opt_scheduler_pad_unlink):
        when removing an element from a group, we always need to
        decrement the link count that this group had with other 
        groups through the element.
        added an extra assert to catch inconsistencies when decrementing
        the link count.

          sink the template, so we don't end up with 130k pad templates

2004-04-06  Benjamin Otte  <otte@gnome.org>

        * gst/autoplug/gstspider.c: (gst_spider_link_add):
          don't ref the element, adding already reffed it. And we didn't unref

        * gst/gstinfo.h:

        * gst/gstinfo.c: (__gst_in_valgrind), (_gst_debug_init):
          add support for detecting if GStreamer runs inside valgrind.
          requires valgrind (d'oh) and --enable-debug for correct cdetection.
          print a big message in valgrind that GStreamer has detected it's
          running inside and might now use different code.

        (gst_mem_chunk_destroy), (gst_mem_chunk_alloc),
        (gst_mem_chunk_free):
          flag memchunks for valgrind, so it can detect leaking of chunks.
          This allows detecting leaks of GstBuffer and GstEvent correctly
          inside valgrind.

          don't throw an error when no element can be scheduled, there's too
          many weird reasons why it doesn't work. Return STOPPED instead.
          decoupled elemts' schedulability doesn't depend on bufpens.

        rather, queue a chain sort by marking the chain as dirty.
        (remove_from_chain): Mark the chain dirty.
        (sort_chain): New function. Sorts the group list so that terminal
        sinks are first. This means elements on the sink side will be
        preferentially sscheduled before elements on the src side of the
        pipeline.

        * gst/elements/gstfakesrc.c: (gst_fakesrc_class_init):
          Change signal type to scope, so we can fill the buffer in the

          This is needed to allow downstream elements to seek. Otherwise
          typefind might overwrite a previous seek by downstream elements.

        Use the result of stat to determine whether a path is a file,
        so we don't attempt to opendir() files.

          discont-before-first-buffer which is needed if we want to allow apps
          to release the sound device.
          add SCHED_ASSERT macro to print scheduler state before an assertion
          triggers.

        * gst/gstelement.h:

        setting element time taking into account a hardware buffering
        delay.
        (gst_element_set_time): Now just an invocation of
        gst_element_set_time_delay.

        * gst/gstbin.c: (gst_bin_set_element_sched),
        (gst_bin_unset_element_sched):
          don't add decoupled elements to schedulers - otherwise it's
          impossible to control if a link to a decoupled element was already
          removed from a scheduler or not.
        * gst/schedulers/cothreads_compat.h:
        * gst/schedulers/gthread-cothreads.h:
          add COTHREADS_TYPE macro. Make do_cothread_set_func a macro so there
          is no "unused" warning.
        * gst/schedulers/Makefile.am:
        * gst/schedulers/entryscheduler.c:
          add new scheduler, based on ideas from talking to David and Martin.
          It's supposed to be small and correct. Currently it's also slow (but
          it's not noticable)
        * examples/retag/retag.c: (main):
        * testsuite/bytestream/test1.c: (main):

2004-03-28  Jan Schmidt  <thaytan@mad.scientist.com>

        * docs/gst/gstreamer-docs.sgml:  I got tired of the reference
        manual being such complete crap, that I decided to do major
        hacking of it.  This checkin replaces any fine tuning that
        may have been done previously, with the benefit of actually
        being complete for much of the API that was changed since
        0.6.  Further fine tuning will occur shortly.  (bug #134721)

        * gst/gstqueue.c: (gst_queue_init):
          Reset default max. values in queues. Reason is simply to avoid
          braindead use. If you want wider values, use the properties. The
          default is supposed to always work. Wider values would make this
          beast a memory hog by default (250 full-PAL RGB32 video frames?
          That's 440 MB! No thank you).

        that annoying warning. Refactor the code a little bit
        (group_dec_links_for_element): Split out

        to other pads is appropriately decremented. This really fixes

        * gst/gst.c: (init_post):
          change so that GST_REGISTRY now is where the global registry gets
          saved, since that is where plugins now get attached to first, and
          spilled over to the user registry.  Note that in the case of using
          GST_REGISTRY env var, we don't want to affect any real registries
          beyond the one given by this var, and thus we don't set a user
          registry to spill to.  So make sure GST_REGISTRY is writable.

        * gst/gstelement.c (gst_element_dispose): Protect against multiple
        invocations.

        * gst/schedulers/gstoptimalscheduler.c:
        I added a mess of prototypes at the top of the file by way of
        documentation. Some of the operations on chains and groups were
        re-organized.

        (create_group): Added a type argument so if the group is enabled,
        the setup_group_scheduler knows what to do.
        (group_elements): Added a type argument here, too, to be passed on
        to create_group.
        (group_element_set_enabled): If an unlinked PLAYING element is
        added to a bin, we have to create a new group to hold the element,
        and this function will be called before the group is added to the
        chain. Thus we have a valid case for group->chain==NULL. Instead
        of calling chain_group_set_enabled, just set the flag on the group
        (the chain's status will be set when the group is added to it).
        (gst_opt_scheduler_state_transition, chain_group_set_enabled):
        Setup the group scheduler when the group is enabled, not
        specifically when an element goes PAUSED->PLAYING. This means
        PLAYING elements can be added, linked, and scheduled into a
        PLAYING pipeline, as was intended.
        (add_to_group): Don't ref the group twice. I don't know when this
        double-ref got in here. Removing it has the potential to cause
        segfaults if other parts of the scheduler are buggy. If you find
        that the scheduler is segfaulting for you, put in an extra ref
        here and see if that hacks over the underlying issue. Of course,
        then find out what code is unreffing a group it doesn't own...
        (create_group): Make the extra refcount floating, and remove it
        after adding the element. This means that...
        (unref_group): Destroy when the refcount reaches 0, not 1, like
        every other refcounted object in the known universe.
        (remove_from_group): When a group becomes empty, set it to be not
        active, and remove it from its chain. Don't unref it again,
        there's no floating reference any more.
        (destroy_group): We have to remove the group from the chain in
        remove_from_group (rather than here) to break refcounting cycles
        (the chain always has a ref on the group). So assert that
        group->chain==NULL.
        (ref_group_by_count): Removed, it was commented out anyway.
        (merge_chains): Use the remove_from_chain and add_to_chain
        primitives to do the reparenting, instead of rolling our own
        implementation.
        (add_to_chain): The first non-disabled group in the chain's group
        list will be the entry point for the chain. Because buffers can
        accumulate in loop elements' peer bufpens, we preferentially
        schedule loop groups before get groups to avoid unnecessary
        execution of get-based groups when the bufpens are already full.
        (gst_opt_scheduler_schedule_run_queue): Debug fixes.
        (get_group_schedule_function): Ditto.
        (loop_group_schedule_function): Ditto.
        (gst_opt_scheduler_loop_wrapper): Ditto.
        (gst_opt_scheduler_iterate): Ditto.

        I understand the opt scheduler now, yippee!

        bug that was breaking pipelines like sinesrc ! { queue ! osssink } when
        an error was thrown by osssink. Basically a state change failure for
        an element in a different scheduling group was considered as
        successful, which means that caps nego was going on and weird stuff

        * gst/gstpad.c (_gst_real_pad_fixate_accumulator):
        s/pointer/boxed/.

        * gst/gstmarshal.list (VOID:BOXED, BOXED:BOXED): New marshallers.

        * gst/gstpad.c (gst_real_pad_class_init): Use a BOXED:BOXED
        marshaller for ::fixate, and VOID:BOXED for ::caps-nego-failed,
        with the type=GST_TYPE_CAPS. This allows language bindings to know
        what kind of data they're dealing with.

        * gst/gstcaps.c (_gst_caps_value_init): GBoxed values initialize
        to NULL when g_value_init is called. GstCaps, which rolls its own
        type implementation, now does the same instead of allocating empty
        caps.
        (_gst_caps_initialize, _gst_caps_collect_value,
        _gst_caps_lcopy_value): Provide collect_value and lcopy_value type
        table methods. This allows G_VALUE_COLLECT to work.

        These two routines are the only ones that set
        GST_GPAD_REALPAD(gpad), the ghost pad list, and the ghost pad's
        pad template. They should be made static, depending on ABI needs.
        (gst_real_pad_dispose): Handle the case of ghost pads without a
        parent. Assert after dealing with ghost pads that the ghost pad
        list is empty.
        (gst_ghost_pad_class_init): New property added, ::real-pad. Can be
        set after creation.
        (gst_ghost_pad_dispose): Set ::real-pad to NULL.
        (gst_ghost_pad_set_property, gst_ghost_pad_get_property): New
        functions. set_property will call add_ghost_pad/remove_ghost_pad
        as appropriate.
        (gst_ghost_pad_new): All the work is offloaded to g_object_new.

        * gst/gstelement.c (gst_element_add_pad): Handle ghost pads as well.
        (gst_element_add_ghost_pad): Remove code duplicated from _add_pad.
        (gst_element_remove_pad): Handle ghost pads as well.
        (gst_element_remove_ghost_pad): Deprecated (could be removed,
        depending on API-stability needs).

        * gst/gstevent.c: (_gst_event_free): Sometimes a tag event arrives but
        the structure does not contain a valid tag list. Adding a safety check

2004-02-09  Julien MOUTTE  <julien@moutte.net>

        * gst/gstdata.c: (gst_data_ref): Adding a categorized debug on data_ref
        because data_unref has one and I prefer the debug to be symetric.
        * gst/gstqueue.c: (gst_queue_locked_flush): Fix a huge memleak. Buffers
        were refed when added to the queue and unrefed only once when the queue
        was flushed. Now the flush handler unref the buffers two times : first
        unref for the ref added when pushing in the queue's tail and second
        unref to destroy the flushed buffer.

          that relates to types and change layout slightly again to be almost
          perfect.

        * docs/pwg/building_signals.xml:
          Short intro to signals + reference to GObject docs - we really
          shouldn't go into these sort of things to deply because we don't
          use them that extensively anyway.

          of the PWG. Most stuff is ready by now. Stuff remaining: signals,
          states and (maybe?) a short introduction to capsnego in the chapter
          on pads (building_pads.xml). Capsnego should probably be explained
          fully in advanced_capsnego.xml or so.

2004-01-26  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_try_set_caps_nonfixed):

        that I added a few weeks ago.

          in here (docs/random/mimetypes), and will from there on work on both
          updating outdated parts and adding missing parts.
          That doesn't mean I'll fix it completely, but I'll try at least. ;).

        * gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_try_set_caps):
          make it work with nonfixed caps.
          Note that even in the nonfixed case the link function of the pad
          that tries to set caps isn't called.

          set event time difference correctly. Set it to 1 second instead

        * gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_set_time):

          update element time correctly.
        * gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_get_compatible_pad_filtered):
          This is a debug message, not a g_critical.

        * gst/gstscheduler.c: (gst_scheduler_state_transition):

          a wrong element time on the first element that started playing.
        * gst/schedulers/gstbasicscheduler.c:
        (gst_basic_scheduler_class_init):
        * gst/schedulers/gstoptimalscheduler.c:
        (gst_opt_scheduler_class_init):
          remove code that just implements the default behaviour.
        * gst/elements/gstfakesink.c: (gst_fakesink_chain):
          update to use new clocking functions
        * testsuite/clock/clock1.c: (gst_clock_debug), (main):
        * testsuite/clock/clock2.c: (gst_clock_debug), (main):
          update to test new element time.
        * gst/autoplug/gstspideridentity.c: (gst_spider_identity_getcaps):
          use _get_allowed_caps instead of _get_caps. This catches filtered
          caps correctly.
        * testsuite/debug/commandline.c:
          update for new GST_DEBUG syntax.
        * testsuite/threads/Makefile.am:
          disable a test that only works sometimes.

2004-01-11  Benjamin Otte  <in7y118@public.uni-hamburg.de>

        * gst/gstqueue.c: (gst_queue_init):
          Use better defaults for when a queue should block. This
          gets rid of jerky playback for quite a few files.
          It takes more memory.

2004-01-10  Thomas Vander Stichele  <thomas at apestaart dot org>

          Change prototype of log function and functions using those to 
          take a GstDebugMessage instead of a string that requires using
          gst_debug_message_get.

2004-01-08  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * tests/Makefile.am:
        * tests/instantiate/Makefile.am:
        * tests/instantiate/create.c: (create_all_elements), (main):
          Add a test that instantiates all elements. This makes it easy to
          track dead code for old API/design (like setting event functions
          on sink pads and so on).

2004-01-06  Jan Schmidt  <thaytan@mad.scientist.com>

        * gst/gstcaps.c: (gst_caps_append_structure):
          Move the poisoning to allow a NULL structure
        * gst/gstevent.c: (_gst_event_free):
          When freeing a navigation event, free the structure
          also

2004-01-04  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/elements/gsttee.c: (gst_tee_init), (gst_tee_request_new_pad):

        * gst/gstcaps.c: (gst_caps_append), (gst_caps_append_structure),
        (gst_caps_split_one), (gst_caps_replace):

        set_explicit_caps() to take const GstCaps, like try_set_caps().
        * gst/gstpad.h:
        * testsuite/caps/Makefile.am:

2004-01-03  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/elements/gsttypefindelement.c:
        (gst_type_find_element_have_type), (gst_type_find_element_init):
        Use gst_pad_use_explicit_caps for src pad.
        * gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_try_set_caps):  Check that link exists
        before using it.

2004-01-03  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_link_pads_filtered),
        (gst_element_negotiate_pads): Fix to allow DELAYED to indicate
        that linking was successful.
        * gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_link_free),
        (gst_pad_link_call_link_functions), (gst_pad_link_negotiate),
        (gst_pad_link_try), (gst_pad_link_unnegotiate),
        (gst_pad_unnegotiate), (gst_pad_set_explicit_caps): Pass
        GstPadLinkReturn correctly between functions, and don't fail
        when DELAYED is used (DELAYED is very important).  Better
        cleanup on unlinking and unnegotiation.  Should fix some spider
        bugs.

2004-01-02  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_class_init),
        (gst_element_base_class_init): ->padtemplates should be cleared
        in base_init, since we need to have a fresh list for every
        class.  (Alternately, we chould copy the list and share the
        actual pad templates (not the list), but that would require
        changing every plugin to move pad template registration from
        base_init to class_init.)

2004-01-03  Ronald Bultje  <rbultje@ronald.bitfreak.net>

        * gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_class_add_pad_template):
          Refuse registering a pad template if another pad template
          with the same name already exists (#114715).

2004-01-02  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstcaps.c: (_gst_structure_is_equal_foreach),
        (gst_caps_is_equal_fixed): Add new function.
        * gst/gstcaps.h: ditto.
        * gst/gstpad.c: (gst_real_pad_class_init),
        (gst_pad_link_call_link_functions), (gst_pad_try_set_caps),
        (gst_pad_set_explicit_caps), (gst_pad_get_caps):  In try_set_caps,
        check new caps against existing caps -- if they're the same, return
        OK without renegotiating.  caps-nego-failed signal fixed so that
        the marshaller isn't VOID__OBJECT.  Also changed to G_TYPE_POINTER
        to save an extra caps copy.  Don't complete negotiation if a pad
        link function returns DELAYED.

2004-01-02  Benjamin Otte  <in7y118@public.uni-hamburg.de>

        * gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_try_relink_filtered):
          Fix wrong g_return_if_fail

2004-01-03  Jan Schmidt  <thaytan@mad.scientist.com>

        * gst/gstbin.c: (gst_bin_class_init):
        Change the marshalling of element_added/element_removed
        to use gst_marshal_VOID__OBJECT, since gst_marshal_VOID__POINTER 
        complains that GST_TYPE_ELEMENT is not G_TYPE_POINTER

2004-01-01  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_set_explicit_caps),
        (gst_pad_explicit_getcaps), (gst_pad_explicit_link),
        (gst_pad_use_explicit_caps):
        * gst/gstpad.h:
        Add new functions.  gst_pad_use_explicit_caps() sets up a pad
        to use an internal getcaps and link fuction so that negotiation
        always results in the explicitly set caps.
        gst_pad_set_explicit_caps() sets the explicit caps.  These functions
        are particularly useful for decoders.

          remove last instances of wingo cothread usage

2003-12-24  Thomas Vander Stichele  <thomas at apestaart dot org>

        * gst/gstplugin.c:
        * gst/gstversion.h.in:
        * gst/parse/grammar.y:
          change comment block from /** to /* when not gtk-doc comments

2003-12-24  Thomas Vander Stichele  <thomas at apestaart dot org>

        * gst/gst.c: whitespace and doc style fixes

2003-12-24  Thomas Vander Stichele  <thomas at apestaart dot org>

        * gst/gstformat.h: remove trailing whitespace from enum for gtk-doc

2003-12-24  Colin Walters  <walters@verbum.org>

        * gst/elements/gsttypefindelement.c:
          gst/elements/gsttypefindelement.h: Make GstCaps parameter const.
          Copy caps parameter. Use _POINTER to marshal caps instead of _BOXED.
          Don't double-free caps.

2003-12-23  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstelement.c, gst/gstpad.c, gst/parse/grammar.y,
          gst/gstcaps.c, gst/autoplug/gstspideridentity.c:
          Many little fixes and additions of debug statements to
          get rhythmbox working.

2003-12-23  Colin Walters  <walters@verbum.org>

        * gst/autoplug/gstspideridentity.c (gst_spider_identity_sink_loop_type_finding):
        Use GST_PAD_LINK_SUCCESSFUL.

2003-12-23  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/elements/gstaggregator.c:
        * gst/elements/gsttee.c:
          Use gst_pad_proxy_getcaps().
        * gst/gstpad.c:
        * gst/gstpad.h:
          Add gst_pad_proxy_getcaps(), which filter elements can use
          as a generic getcaps implementation.
          Fix gst_pad_get_allowed_caps().  It just wasn't doing what
          was advertised.

2003-12-23  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstpad.c:
          Rearrange/rewrite much of the pad negotiation code, since it
          resembled pasta.  This actually changes the way some
          negotiation works, since the previous code was inconsistent
          depending on how it was invoked.  Add (internal) structure
          GstPadLink, which is used to hold some information (more in
          the future) about the link between two pads.  Fixes a number
          of bugs, including random lossage of filter caps when the
          initial negotiation is delayed.  A few functions are still
          unimplemented.
        * gst/gstpad.h:
          Add GST_PAD_LINK_{SUCESSFUL|FAILED}() macros.  Please use
          these when testing GstPadLinkReturn values instead of comparing
          directly.

2003-12-23  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gst/gstvalue.c: 
        * gst/gstvalue.h:
          Rearrange lots of code.  Change registration of compare function
          into registration of compare/serialize/deserialize functions.
          Doesn't include implementation of gst_value_[de]serialize(),
          but that should be easy.

2003-12-23  Thomas Vander Stichele  <thomas at apestaart dot org>

        * docs/gst/gstreamer-sections.txt:
        * docs/gst/tmpl/gstprops.sgml: removed
        * docs/gst/tmpl/gstreamer-bufferpool.sgml: removed
          David removed props and caps code, so let's remove their docs as well.
          Removed all no longer existing symbols from gstreamer-sections.txt
          
2003-12-22  Colin Walters  <walters@verbum.org>

        * gst/gsttaginterface.c, gst/gsttaginterface.h,
          gst/gsttag.c, gst/gsttag.h:  Add interface to setting GValues
          of tags directly.

2003-12-22  Benjamin Otte  <in7y118@public.uni-hamburg.de>

        * gst/elements/gstelements.c:
          Set ranks of elements to NONE, so the autoplugger doesn't use them.
        * gst/elements/gstshaper.c: (gst_shaper_getcaps):
          Fix proxying to new CAPS stuff. Don't call get_allowed_caps but
          gst_caps (peer).

        (gst_spider_identity_getcaps), (gst_spider_identity_change_state),
        (gst_spider_identity_sink_loop_type_finding):
        * gst/autoplug/gstspideridentity.h:
          Fix autoplugging in spider element, so it works with new caps.
          This was mainly caused by identifying empty caps incorrectly.

2003-12-22  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * gststructure.c, gstvalue.c, gstvalue.h: Add
          gst_value_init_and_copy() and use it, to avoid silly mistakes in
          using g_value_copy()

2003-12-21  David Schleef  <ds@schleef.org>

        * many, many files: Merge CAPS branch.  This includes:
          - implemention of GstValue and several GstValue types
          - implemention of GstStructure
          - entire rewrite of GstCaps
          - removal of GstProps
          - many changes to GstPad to compensate for new caps paradigm
          - removal of GstBufferpool
        * gst/Makefile.am, gst/gst.h, gst/gstpad.h, gst/gsttypefind.h,
        gstvalue.h, gst/gstcaps[2]*.[ch]:
          - rename gstcaps2.[ch] to gstcaps.[ch]

        * gst/gstqueue.c: (gst_queue_handle_pending_events),
        (gst_queue_chain), (gst_queue_handle_src_event):
          implement timeout for sending events. Workaround for if the
          pipeline on this queue is not passing any data.
