[gst-devel] Installation V/s copying

[vishy S]

Hello friends,

I posted this message some dayz back, but yet recieve
help. I am trying my luck this time. Please bare me,
as I am new to linux and Gstreamer.

Before i install the Gstreamer i wanted to confirm
some points with you all. I would like to know the way
to compile the Gstreamer. My understanding is,
Gstreamer is a library and this is installed on Linux.
Also in "readme" file I read the Gstreamer need not be
installed.

My aim is to compile the Gstreamer along with my
plugin and Gstreamer debug options. Then I would like
to profile and debug the entire application.
Especially i am interested in Gstreamer profiling. If
i use tools such as gprof, this expects .c files. As
Gstreamer is a Library i have a basic confusion that
whether i will be able to profile Gstreamer. So I
think i should not install gstreamer, but rather just
copy the Gstreamer on my machine and use the C source
file to compile along with my plugin source code. 

Thanks a lot.

Regards
-Vishy
