<a name="GstPadTemplate.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>
Padtemplates describe the possible media types a pad or an elementfactory can
handle. This allows for both inspection of handled types before loading the
element plugin as well as identifying pads on elements that are not yet
created (request or sometimes pads).
</p>
<p>
Pad and PadTemplates have <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstCaps.html#GstCaps" title="struct GstCaps"><span class="type">GstCaps</span></a> attached to it to describe the media type
they are capable of dealing with. <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#gst-pad-template-get-caps" title="gst_pad_template_get_caps ()"><code class="function">gst_pad_template_get_caps()</code></a> or
<a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#GST-PAD-TEMPLATE-CAPS" title="GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_CAPS()"><code class="function">GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_CAPS()</code></a> are used to get the caps of a padtemplate. It's not
possible to modify the caps of a padtemplate after creation.
</p>
<p>
PadTemplates have a <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#GstPadPresence" title="enum GstPadPresence"><span class="type">GstPadPresence</span></a> property which identifies the lifetime
of the pad and that can be retrieved with <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#GST-PAD-TEMPLATE-PRESENCE:CAPS" title="GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_PRESENCE()"><code class="function">GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_PRESENCE()</code></a>. Also
the direction of the pad can be retrieved from the <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html" title="GstPadTemplate"><span class="type">GstPadTemplate</span></a> with
<a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#GST-PAD-TEMPLATE-DIRECTION:CAPS" title="GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_DIRECTION()"><code class="function">GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_DIRECTION()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
The <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#GST-PAD-TEMPLATE-NAME-TEMPLATE:CAPS" title="GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_NAME_TEMPLATE()"><code class="function">GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_NAME_TEMPLATE()</code></a> is important for GST_PAD_REQUEST pads
because it has to be used as the name in the <a class="link" href="GstElement.html#gst-element-get-request-pad" title="gst_element_get_request_pad ()"><code class="function">gst_element_get_request_pad()</code></a>
call to instantiate a pad from this template.
</p>
<p>
Padtemplates can be created with <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#gst-pad-template-new" title="gst_pad_template_new ()"><code class="function">gst_pad_template_new()</code></a> or with
<a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#gst-static-pad-template-get" title="gst_static_pad_template_get ()"><code class="function">gst_static_pad_template_get()</code></a>, which creates a <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html" title="GstPadTemplate"><span class="type">GstPadTemplate</span></a> from a
<a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#GstStaticPadTemplate" title="struct GstStaticPadTemplate"><span class="type">GstStaticPadTemplate</span></a> that can be filled with the
convenient <a class="link" href="GstPadTemplate.html#GST-STATIC-PAD-TEMPLATE:CAPS" title="GST_STATIC_PAD_TEMPLATE()"><code class="function">GST_STATIC_PAD_TEMPLATE()</code></a> macro.
</p>
<p>
A padtemplate can be used to create a pad (see <a class="link" href="GstPad.html#gst-pad-new-from-template" title="gst_pad_new_from_template ()"><code class="function">gst_pad_new_from_template()</code></a>
or <a class="link" href="GstPad.html#gst-pad-new-from-static-template" title="gst_pad_new_from_static_template ()"><code class="function">gst_pad_new_from_static_template()</code></a>) or to add to an element class
(see <a class="link" href="GstElement.html#gst-element-class-add-pad-template" title="gst_element_class_add_pad_template ()"><code class="function">gst_element_class_add_pad_template()</code></a>).
</p>
<p>
The following code example shows the code to create a pad from a padtemplate.
