GQuark gst_parse_error_quark (void);
Get the error quark used by the parsing subsystem.
| Returns : | the quark of the parse errors. |
#define GST_PARSE_ERROR gst_parse_error_quark ()
Get access to the error quark of the parse subsystem.

GstElement* gst_parse_launch (const gchar *pipeline_description, GError **error);
Create a new pipeline based on command line syntax.
Please note that you might get a return value that is not NULL even though
the error is set. In this case there was a recoverable parsing error and you
can try to play the pipeline.

GstElement* gst_parse_bin_from_description (const gchar *bin_description, gboolean ghost_unconnected_pads, GError **err);
This is a convenience wrapper around gst_parse_launch() to create a
GstBin from a gst-launch-style pipeline description. See
gst_parse_launch() and the gst-launch man page for details about the
syntax. Ghost pads on the bin for unconnected source or sink pads
within the bin can automatically be created (but only a maximum of
one ghost pad for each direction will be created; if you expect
multiple unconnected source pads or multiple unconnected sink pads
and want them all ghosted, you will have to create the ghost pads
yourself).
