GStreamerCppHelpers

Headers to simplify GStreamer usage from C++.

For Whom Is This Useful?

Those who need to use GStreamer from C++, but do not want to use some complete C++ bindings for GStreamer.

These headers do not have external dependencies (other than GStreamer itself) and do not use introspection files neither.

Currently available

• GstPtr <>

  A specialized SmartPointer for GStreamer objects.

How to build

This library is header-only, therefore you only need to build it to run the tests.

• Pre-requisites:
