           Summary: why gst_decode_bin_get_type static?
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: lfarkas at lfarkas.org
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


almost all *_get_type() functions are exported (ie. not declared as static)
from the gstreamer dlls, but there are a few eg:
gst_decode_bin_get_type
which is not. why?
imho it's a bug since in this case language bindings can't call these
functions. eg. i like to know decodebin's type from java and currently there is
no way to call it.
