link_pads_filtered


Description:

public bool link_pads_filtered (string? srcpadname, Element dest, string? destpadname, Caps? filter)

Links the two named pads of the source and destination elements.

Side effect is that if one of the pads has no parent, it becomes a child of the parent of the other element. If they have different parents, the link fails. If caps is not null, makes sure that the caps of the link is a subset of caps.

Parameters:

this

a Element containing the source pad.

srcpadname

the name of the Pad in source element or null for any pad.

dest

the Element containing the destination pad.

destpadname

the name of the Pad in destination element or null for any pad.

filter

the Caps to filter the link, or null for no filter.

Returns:

true if the pads could be linked, false otherwise.
