24 * @short_description: Asynchronous message bus subsystem
25 * @see_also: #GstMessage, #GstElement
27 * The #GstBus is an object responsible for delivering #GstMessage packets in
28 * a first-in first-out way from the streaming threads (see #GstTask) to the
31 * Since the application typically only wants to deal with delivery of these
32 * messages from one thread, the GstBus will marshall the messages between
33 * different threads. This is important since the actual streaming of media
34 * is done in another thread than the application.
36 * The GstBus provides support for #GSource based notifications. This makes it
37 * possible to handle the delivery in the glib mainloop.
39 * The #GSource callback function gst_bus_async_signal_func() can be used to
40 * convert all bus messages into signal emissions.
42 * A message is posted on the bus with the gst_bus_post() method. With the
43 * gst_bus_peek() and gst_bus_pop() methods one can look at or retrieve a
44 * previously posted message.
46 * The bus can be polled with the gst_bus_poll() method. This methods blocks
47 * up to the specified timeout value until one of the specified messages types
48 * is posted on the bus. The application can then gst_bus_pop() the messages
49 * from the bus to handle them.
50 * Alternatively the application can register an asynchronous bus function
51 * using gst_bus_add_watch_full() or gst_bus_add_watch(). This function will
52 * install a #GSource in the default glib main loop and will deliver messages
53 * a short while after they have been posted. Note that the main loop should
54 * be running for the asynchronous callbacks.
56 * It is also possible to get messages from the bus without any thread
57 * marshalling with the gst_bus_set_sync_handler() method. This makes it
58 * possible to react to a message in the same thread that posted the
59 * message on the bus. This should only be used if the application is able
60 * to deal with messages from different threads.
62 * Every #GstPipeline has one bus.
64 * Note that a #GstPipeline will set its bus into flushing state when changing
65 * from READY to NULL state.

1047 * some other resource; change other application state; display a dialog and
1048 * run another main loop until the user clicks it away. In short, using this
1049 * function may add a lot of complexity to your code through unexpected
1050 * re-entrancy and unexpected changes to your application's state.

1058 * poll timed out. The message is taken from the bus and needs to be
