[gst-devel] Init pipeline in the function

[Edward Hervey]

The correct answer since nobody was able to come up with it (although
one was very close):

--------------------------------
static GstElement * createPipeline (void) {
  GstElement * pipeline;

  pipeline = gst_pipeline_new ("mylittleponypipeline");

  /* Do stuff with the pipeline, fill it in, etc... */

  return pipeline;
}

void main (int argc, gchar **argv) {
  GstElement * pipeline;

  /* Initialize GStreamer, parse arguments, etc.. */

  pipeline = createPipeline ();

  /* Use pipeline */
}
---------------------------------------

  I recommend everybody who replied to the list to read Kernighan &
Ritchie "The C programming language" [1] as well as reading examples and
learning how to use google.
