GStreamer | gst-python | Ver: HEAD CVS
Summary: [0.11][API] Make gst.Pad.query_* raise exceptions
Product: GStreamer
Version: HEAD CVS
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: gst-python
AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
ReportedBy: alessandro.d at gmail.com
QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
GNOME version: Unspecified
GNOME milestone: Unspecified
Currently gst.Pad.query_* methods return None when the query fails.
This is particularly annoying as when a query succeeds the result is a two
element tuple, so you it's natural to unpack it like
a, b = pad.query_*(...)
except that when there's a failure, python throws an exception at you as None
can't be unpacked in two items.
The methods should raise exceptions or at least return (None, None).
