Detailed Description

Function Documentation

gstreamersMapPtr()

std::shared_ptr< const gstreamersMap > gstreamer::gstreamersMapPtr ( const std::shared_ptr< GOptions > & gopts, int thread_id = -1 )

inline

This helper parses all configured output definitions, specializes each one for the requested worker thread, dynamically loads the corresponding plugin, and stores the resulting streamer object in the returned map.

The helper intentionally does not open the backend connection. That step is left to the caller so applications can decide how to handle failures and when to start the output lifetime.

Parameters

gopts	Parsed options container supplying streamer definitions.
thread_id	Worker thread id used to specialize output names. The default leaves names unchanged.

Returns

Shared pointer to a constant map from plugin object name to streamer instance.
