[gst-devel] Extracting properties from element causes hang

[Wes Miller]

I stink at gdb.  I'll see where I get but I'm light on hope.


I guess I expected a string to be a string object with a length field and a
pointer to the data and gchararray to be either a char xyz[234] or the "g"
representation of a chararray.  I hadn't expected any difference in what
wouyld be returned.  FWIW, the code I copied from gst-inspect sees them
differently.

With g_object_get_property() this runs as expected:

      switch( G_VALUE_TYPE( &value ))
      {
         case G_TYPE_STRING:  // String

But with g_object_get() I get to the bailaout case for Unknown datatype,
which prints Unknown datatype: gchararray (64).

The 64 appears to be the type index of gchararray.

So, I assume I'm missing the obvious and that they really are the same, but
Tim's code caught it.
