## Detailed Description

A data type to hold the handle to an outstanding sync or async clock callback.

## Member Typedef Documentation

typedef sigc::slot< bool, const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Clock>&, ClockTime, const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::ClockID>& > Gst::ClockID::SlotClock

For example, bool on_clock(const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Clock>& clock, ClockTime time, const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::ClockID>& id);.

The clock function return value is currently unused (see GstClockCallback).

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Gst::ClockID::ClockID | ( |  | ) | `[protected]`

## Member Function Documentation

ClockTime Gst::ClockID::get_time | ( |  | ) | const

Get the time of the clock ID.

Returns:
  The time of the given clock id.

MT safe.

const GstClockEntry* Gst::ClockID::gobj | ( |  | ) | const

Provides access to the underlying C instance.

GstClockEntry* Gst::ClockID::gobj | ( |  | ) |

Provides access to the underlying C instance.

GstClockEntry* Gst::ClockID::gobj_copy | ( |  | ) | const

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

void Gst::ClockID::operator delete | ( | void * | ,
|  | size_t |  |
| ) |  |  | `[protected]`

void Gst::ClockID::reference | ( |  | ) | const

Increment the reference count for this object.

You should never need to do this manually - use the object via a RefPtr instead.

void Gst::ClockID::unreference | ( |  | ) | const

Decrement the reference count for this object.

You should never need to do this manually - use the object via a RefPtr instead.

void Gst::ClockID::unschedule | ( |  | ) |

Cancel an outstanding request with id.

This can either be an outstanding async notification or a pending sync notification. After this call, id cannot be used anymore to receive sync or async notifications, you need to create a new Gst::ClockID.

MT safe.

ClockReturn Gst::ClockID::wait | ( |  | ) |

Perform a blocking wait without requiring a jitter argument.

Gst::ClockID should have been created with Gst::Clock::create_single_shot_id() or Gst::Clock::create_periodic_id() and should not have been unscheduled with a call to unschedule().

Returns:
  The result of the blocking wait. Gst::CLOCK_EARLY will be returned if the current clock time is past the time of Gst::ClockID, Gst::CLOCK_OK if Gst::ClockID was scheduled in time. Gst::CLOCK_UNSCHEDULED if Gst::ClockID was unscheduled with unschedule().

ClockReturn Gst::ClockID::wait | ( | ClockTimeDiff& | jitter | ) |

Perform a blocking wait on the Gst::ClockID.

The Gst::ClockID should have been created with Gst::Clock::create_single_shot_id() or Gst::Clock::create_periodic_id() and should not have been unscheduled with a call to unschedule().

If this function returns Gst::CLOCK_OK or Gst::CLOCK_EARLY, the jitter argument will contain the difference against the clock and the time of the Gst::ClockID when this method was called. Positive values indicate how late the Gst::ClockID was relative to the clock (in which case this function will return Gst::CLOCK_EARLY). Negative values indicate how much time was spent waiting on the clock before this function returned.

Parameters:

  | jitter | A pointer that will contain the jitter.

Returns:
  The result of the blocking wait. Gst::CLOCK_EARLY will be returned if the current clock time is past the time of the Gst::ClockID, Gst::CLOCK_OK if Gst::ClockID was scheduled in time. Gst::CLOCK_UNSCHEDULED if Gst::ClockID was unscheduled with unschedule().

MT safe.

ClockReturn Gst::ClockID::wait_async | ( | const SlotClock& | slot | ) |

Register a slot on the given Gst::ClockID id with the given slot.

When passing a Gst::ClockID with an invalid time to this function, the slot will be called immediatly with a time set to Gst::CLOCK_TIME_NONE. The slot will be called when the time of id has been reached.

Parameters:

  | slot | The slot to callback.

Returns:
  The result of the non blocking wait. MT safe.

Glib::RefPtr< Gst::ClockID > wrap | ( | GstClockEntry * | object,
|  | bool | take_copy = `false` |
| ) |  |  | `[related]`

A Glib::wrap() method for this object.

Parameters:

  | object | The C instance.
  | take_copy | False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.

Returns:
  A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
