26 * @short_description: Container for features loaded from a shared object module
27 * @see_also: #GstPluginFeature, #GstElementFactory
29 * GStreamer is extensible, so #GstElement instances can be loaded at runtime.
30 * A plugin system can provide one or more of the basic GStreamer
31 * #GstPluginFeature subclasses.
33 * A plugin should export a symbol `gst_plugin_desc` that is a
34 * struct of type #GstPluginDesc.
35 * the plugin loader will check the version of the core library the plugin was
36 * linked against and will create a new #GstPlugin. It will then call the
37 * #GstPluginInitFunc function that was provided in the
40 * Once you have a handle to a #GstPlugin (e.g. from the #GstRegistry), you
41 * can add any object that subclasses #GstPluginFeature.
43 * Usually plugins are always automatically loaded so you don't need to call
44 * gst_plugin_load() explicitly to bring it into memory. There are options to
45 * statically link plugins to an app or even use GStreamer without a plugin
46 * repository in which case gst_plugin_load() can be needed to bring the plugin
