<a name="GstBufferPool.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>A <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html" title="GstBufferPool"><span class="type">GstBufferPool</span></a> is an object that can be used to pre-allocate and recycle
buffers of the same size and with the same properties.</p>
<p>A <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html" title="GstBufferPool"><span class="type">GstBufferPool</span></a> is created with <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-new" title="gst_buffer_pool_new ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_new()</code></a>.</p>
<p>Once a pool is created, it needs to be configured. A call to
<a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-get-config" title="gst_buffer_pool_get_config ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_get_config()</code></a> returns the current configuration structure from
the pool. With <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-config-set-params" title="gst_buffer_pool_config_set_params ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_config_set_params()</code></a> and
<a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-config-set-allocator" title="gst_buffer_pool_config_set_allocator ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_config_set_allocator()</code></a> the bufferpool parameters and
allocator can be configured. Other properties can be configured in the pool
depending on the pool implementation.</p>
<p>A bufferpool can have extra options that can be enabled with
<a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-config-add-option" title="gst_buffer_pool_config_add_option ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_config_add_option()</code></a>. The available options can be retrieved
with <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-get-options" title="gst_buffer_pool_get_options ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_get_options()</code></a>. Some options allow for additional
configuration properties to be set.</p>
<p>After the configuration structure has been configured,
<a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-set-config" title="gst_buffer_pool_set_config ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_set_config()</code></a> updates the configuration in the pool. This can
fail when the configuration structure is not accepted.</p>
<p>After the a pool has been configured, it can be activated with
<a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-set-active" title="gst_buffer_pool_set_active ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_set_active()</code></a>. This will preallocate the configured resources
in the pool.</p>
<p>When the pool is active, <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-acquire-buffer" title="gst_buffer_pool_acquire_buffer ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_acquire_buffer()</code></a> can be used to
retrieve a buffer from the pool.</p>
<p>Buffers allocated from a bufferpool will automatically be returned to the
pool with <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-release-buffer" title="gst_buffer_pool_release_buffer ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_release_buffer()</code></a> when their refcount drops to 0.</p>
<p>The bufferpool can be deactivated again with <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-set-active" title="gst_buffer_pool_set_active ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_set_active()</code></a>.
All further <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-acquire-buffer" title="gst_buffer_pool_acquire_buffer ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_acquire_buffer()</code></a> calls will return an error. When
all buffers are returned to the pool they will be freed.</p>
<p>Use <a class="link" href="GstObject.html#gst-object-unref" title="gst_object_unref ()"><code class="function">gst_object_unref()</code></a> to release the reference to a bufferpool. If the
refcount of the pool reaches 0, the pool will be freed.</p>

are still valid in the context of the

changes made by a pool to a config when <a class="link" href="GstBufferPool.html#gst-buffer-pool-set-config" title="gst_buffer_pool_set_config ()"><code class="function">gst_buffer_pool_set_config()</code></a>
returns <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#FALSE:CAPS"><code class="literal">FALSE</code></a>. This expects that <em class="parameter"><code>caps</code></em>
haven't changed and that
<em class="parameter"><code>min_buffers</code></em>
aren't lower then what we initially expected.
This does not check if options or allocator parameters are still valid,
won't check if size have changed, since changing the size is valid to adapt
padding.</p>
