     39 * AVOptions provide a generic system to declare options on arbitrary structs
     40 * ("objects"). An option can have a help text, a type and a range of possible
     41 * values. Options may then be enumerated, read and written to.
     42 *
     43 * @section avoptions_implement Implementing AVOptions
     44 * This section describes how to add AVOptions capabilities to a struct.
     45 *
     46 * All AVOptions-related information is stored in an AVClass. Therefore
     47 * the first member of the struct must be a pointer to an AVClass describing it.
     48 * The option field of the AVClass must be set to a NULL-terminated static array
     49 * of AVOptions. Each AVOption must have a non-empty name, a type, a default
     50 * value and for number-type AVOptions also a range of allowed values. It must
     51 * also declare an offset in bytes from the start of the struct, where the field
     52 * associated with this AVOption is located. Other fields in the AVOption struct
     53 * should also be set when applicable, but are not required.
     54 *
     55 * The following example illustrates an AVOptions-enabled struct:
     56 * @code
     57 * typedef struct test_struct {
     58 *     AVClass *class;
     59 *     int      int_opt;
     60 *     char    *str_opt;
     61 *     uint8_t *bin_opt;
     62 *     int      bin_len;
     63 * } test_struct;
     64 *
     65 * static const AVOption options[] = {
     66 *   { "test_int", "This is a test option of int type.", offsetof(test_struct, int_opt),
     67 *     AV_OPT_TYPE_INT, { -1 }, INT_MIN, INT_MAX },
     68 *   { "test_str", "This is a test option of string type.", offsetof(test_struct, str_opt),
     69 *     AV_OPT_TYPE_STRING },
     70 *   { "test_bin", "This is a test option of binary type.", offsetof(test_struct, bin_opt),
     71 *     AV_OPT_TYPE_BINARY },
     72 *   { NULL },
     73 * };
     74 *
     75 * static const AVClass test_class = {
     76 *     .class_name = "test class",
     77 *     .item_name  = av_default_item_name,
     78 *     .option     = options,
     79 *     .version    = LIBAVUTIL_VERSION_INT,
     80 * };
     81 * @endcode
     82 *
     83 * Next, when allocating your struct, you must ensure that the AVClass pointer
     84 * is set to the correct value. Then, av_opt_set_defaults() must be called to
     85 * initialize defaults. After that the struct is ready to be used with the
     86 * AVOptions API.
     87 *
     88 * When cleaning up, you may use the av_opt_free() function to automatically
     89 * free all the allocated string and binary options.
     90 *
     91 * Continuing with the above example:
     92 *
     93 * @code
     94 * test_struct *alloc_test_struct(void)
     95 * {
     96 *     test_struct *ret = av_malloc(sizeof(*ret));
     97 *     ret->class = &test_class;
     98 *     av_opt_set_defaults(ret);
     99 *     return ret;
    100 * }
    101 * void free_test_struct(test_struct **foo)
    102 * {
    103 *     av_opt_free(*foo);
    104 *     av_freep(foo);
    105 * }
    106 * @endcode
    107 *
    108 * @subsection avoptions_implement_nesting Nesting
    109 *      It may happen that an AVOptions-enabled struct contains another
    110 *      AVOptions-enabled struct as a member (e.g. AVCodecContext in
    111 *      libavcodec exports generic options, while its priv_data field exports
    112 *      codec-specific options). In such a case, it is possible to set up the
    113 *      parent struct to export a child's options. To do that, simply
    114 *      implement AVClass.child_next() and AVClass.child_class_next() in the
    115 *      parent struct's AVClass.
    116 *      Assuming that the test_struct from above now also contains a
    117 *      child_struct field:
    118 *
    119 *      @code
    120 *      typedef struct child_struct {
    121 *          AVClass *class;
    122 *          int flags_opt;
    123 *      } child_struct;
    124 *      static const AVOption child_opts[] = {
    125 *          { "test_flags", "This is a test option of flags type.",
    126 *            offsetof(child_struct, flags_opt), AV_OPT_TYPE_FLAGS, { 0 }, INT_MIN, INT_MAX },
    127 *          { NULL },
    128 *      };
    129 *      static const AVClass child_class = {
    130 *          .class_name = "child class",
    131 *          .item_name  = av_default_item_name,
    132 *          .option     = child_opts,
    133 *          .version    = LIBAVUTIL_VERSION_INT,
    134 *      };
    135 *
    136 *      void *child_next(void *obj, void *prev)
    137 *      {
    138 *          test_struct *t = obj;
    139 *          if (!prev && t->child_struct)
    140 *              return t->child_struct;
    141 *          return NULL
    142 *      }
    143 *      const AVClass child_class_next(const AVClass *prev)
    144 *      {
    145 *          return prev ? NULL : &child_class;
    146 *      }
    147 *      @endcode
    148 *      Putting child_next() and child_class_next() as defined above into
    149 *      test_class will now make child_struct's options accessible through
    150 *      test_struct (again, proper setup as described above needs to be done on
    151 *      child_struct right after it is created).
    152 *
    153 *      From the above example it might not be clear why both child_next()
    154 *      and child_class_next() are needed. The distinction is that child_next()
    155 *      iterates over actually existing objects, while child_class_next()
    156 *      iterates over all possible child classes. E.g. if an AVCodecContext
    157 *      was initialized to use a codec which has private options, then its
    158 *      child_next() will return AVCodecContext.priv_data and finish
    159 *      iterating. OTOH child_class_next() on AVCodecContext.av_class will
    160 *      iterate over all available codecs with private options.
    161 *
    162 * @subsection avoptions_implement_named_constants Named constants
    163 *      It is possible to create named constants for options. Simply set the unit
    164 *      field of the option the constants should apply to to a string and
    165 *      create the constants themselves as options of type AV_OPT_TYPE_CONST
    166 *      with their unit field set to the same string.
    167 *      Their default_val field should contain the value of the named
    168 *      constant.
    169 *      For example, to add some named constants for the test_flags option
    170 *      above, put the following into the child_opts array:
    171 *      @code
    172 *      { "test_flags", "This is a test option of flags type.",
    173 *        offsetof(child_struct, flags_opt), AV_OPT_TYPE_FLAGS, { 0 }, INT_MIN, INT_MAX, "test_unit" },
    174 *      { "flag1", "This is a flag with value 16", 0, AV_OPT_TYPE_CONST, { 16 }, 0, 0, "test_unit" },
    175 *      @endcode
    176 *
    177 * @section avoptions_use Using AVOptions
    178 * This section deals with accessing options in an AVOptions-enabled struct.
    179 * Such structs in Libav are e.g. AVCodecContext in libavcodec or
    180 * AVFormatContext in libavformat.
    181 *
    182 * @subsection avoptions_use_examine Examining AVOptions
    183 * The basic functions for examining options are av_opt_next(), which iterates
    184 * over all options defined for one object, and av_opt_find(), which searches
    185 * for an option with the given name.
    186 *
    187 * The situation is more complicated with nesting. An AVOptions-enabled struct
    188 * may have AVOptions-enabled children. Passing the AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN flag
    189 * to av_opt_find() will make the function search children recursively.
    190 *
    191 * For enumerating there are basically two cases. The first is when you want to
    192 * get all options that may potentially exist on the struct and its children
    193 * (e.g.  when constructing documentation). In that case you should call
    194 * av_opt_child_class_next() recursively on the parent struct's AVClass.  The
    195 * second case is when you have an already initialized struct with all its
    196 * children and you want to get all options that can be actually written or read
    197 * from it. In that case you should call av_opt_child_next() recursively (and
    198 * av_opt_next() on each result).
    199 *
    200 * @subsection avoptions_use_get_set Reading and writing AVOptions
    201 * When setting options, you often have a string read directly from the
    202 * user. In such a case, simply passing it to av_opt_set() is enough. For
    203 * non-string type options, av_opt_set() will parse the string according to the
    204 * option type.
    205 *
    206 * Similarly av_opt_get() will read any option type and convert it to a string
    207 * which will be returned. Do not forget that the string is allocated, so you
    208 * have to free it with av_free().
    209 *
    210 * In some cases it may be more convenient to put all options into an
    211 * AVDictionary and call av_opt_set_dict() on it. A specific case of this
    212 * are the format/codec open functions in lavf/lavc which take a dictionary
    213 * filled with option as a parameter. This allows to set some options
    214 * that cannot be set otherwise, since e.g. the input file format is not known
    215 * before the file is actually opened.
