Yeah, I can reproduce the bug. From my point of view, it's a bug in GStreamer itself: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324818 (FYI, here's what happens: When you run your code, GStreamer::Registry->get_default calls gst_registry_get_default which returns a floating registry object with refcount 1. When the Perl bindings get to it, they ref and sink it, which produces a registry that still has a refcount of 1 but is not floating anymore. Now, when you reach the end of the "test" sub, the lexical $reg is destroyed -- so the Perl wrappers also release their grip on the registry object, which means decrementing the refcount. Since the refcount was 1 before, it now drops to 0 and the registry is finalized. Then, when you want to create a new element, GStreamer complains that it cannot find a usable default registry.) -- Bye, -Torsten _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
