load


Description:

public PluginFeature? load ()

Loads the plugin containing this if it's not already loaded.

this is unaffected; use the return value instead.

Normally this function is used like this:

GstPluginFeature *loaded_feature;

loaded_feature = gst_plugin_feature_load (feature);
// presumably, we're no longer interested in the potentially-unloaded feature
gst_object_unref (feature);
feature = loaded_feature;

Parameters:

this

the plugin feature to check

Returns:

a reference to the loaded feature, or null on error
