<a name="GstObject.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p><a class="link" href="GstObject.html" title="GstObject"><span class="type">GstObject</span></a> provides a root for the object hierarchy tree filed in by the
GStreamer library. It is currently a thin wrapper on top of
<a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobjectgobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#GInitiallyUnowned"><span class="type">GInitiallyUnowned</span></a>. It is an abstract class that is not very usable on its own.</p>
<p><a class="link" href="GstObject.html" title="GstObject"><span class="type">GstObject</span></a> gives us basic refcounting, parenting functionality and locking.
Most of the functions are just extended for special GStreamer needs and can be
found under the same name in the base class of <a class="link" href="GstObject.html" title="GstObject"><span class="type">GstObject</span></a> which is <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobjectgobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#GObject-struct"><span class="type">GObject</span></a>
(e.g. <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobjectgobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-ref"><code class="function">g_object_ref()</code></a> becomes <a class="link" href="GstObject.html#gst-object-ref" title="gst_object_ref ()"><code class="function">gst_object_ref()</code></a>).</p>
<p>Since <a class="link" href="GstObject.html" title="GstObject"><span class="type">GstObject</span></a> derives from <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobjectgobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#GInitiallyUnowned"><span class="type">GInitiallyUnowned</span></a>, it also inherits the
floating reference. Be aware that functions such as <a class="link" href="GstBin.html#gst-bin-add" title="gst_bin_add ()"><code class="function">gst_bin_add()</code></a> and
<a class="link" href="GstElement.html#gst-element-add-pad" title="gst_element_add_pad ()"><code class="function">gst_element_add_pad()</code></a> take ownership of the floating reference.</p>
<p>In contrast to <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobjectgobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#GObject-struct"><span class="type">GObject</span></a> instances, <a class="link" href="GstObject.html" title="GstObject"><span class="type">GstObject</span></a> adds a name property. The functions

<p>
Controlled properties offers a lightweight way to adjust gobject properties
over stream-time. It works by using time-stamped value pairs that are queued
for element-properties. At run-time the elements continuously pull value
changes for the current stream-time.
What needs to be changed in a <a class="link" href="GstElement.html" title="GstElement"><span class="type">GstElement</span></a>?
Very little - it is just two steps to make a plugin controllable!

when processing data (get, chain, loop function) at the beginning call
gst_object_sync_values(element,timestamp).
This will make the controller update all GObject properties that are
under its control with the current values based on the timestamp.

Again it's not a lot to change.
