[gst-devel] Multiple GStreamer inits

[Arne Caspari]

Hello, 

I want to use GStreamer in a plugin for another application but I have
the following issue there: 

I need to call gst_init ( or gst_init_check ) when the plugin gets
loaded. But I seem to be able to call gst_init only once, subsequent
calls will crash. This will lead to an application crash any time the
plugin unloads and reloads. Calling gst_deinit also does not help. 

Am I missing something obvious? Is there any way to determine whether
GStreamer is already initialized? 


Thanks, 

 /Arne
