An option can have a help text, a type and a range of possible * values. Options may then be enumerated, read and written to. * * There are two modes of access to members of AVOption and its child structs. * One is called 'native access', and refers to access from the code that * declares the AVOption in question. The other is 'foreign access', and refers * to access from other code. * * Certain struct members in this header are documented as 'native access only' * or similar - it means that only the code that declared the AVOption in * question is allowed to access the field. This allows us to extend the * semantics of those fields without breaking API compatibility. * * @section avoptions_scope Scope of AVOptions * * AVOptions is designed to support any set of multimedia configuration options * that can be defined at compile-time. Although it is mainly used to expose * FFmpeg options, you are welcome to adapt it to your own use case. * * No single approach can ever fully solve the problem of configuration, * but please submit a patch if you believe you have found a problem * that is best solved by extending AVOptions. * * @section avoptions_implement Implementing AVOptions * This section describes how to add AVOptions capabilities to a struct. * * All AVOptions-related information is stored in an AVClass. Therefore * the first member of the struct should be a pointer to an AVClass describing it. * The option field of the AVClass must be set to a NULL-terminated static array * of AVOptions. Each AVOption must have a non-empty name, a type, a default * value and for number-type AVOptions also a range of allowed values. It must * also declare an offset in bytes from the start of the struct, where the field * associated with this AVOption is located. Other fields in the AVOption struct * should also be set when applicable, but are not required. * * The following example illustrates an AVOptions-enabled struct: * @code * typedef struct test_struct { * const AVClass *class; * int int_opt; * char *str_opt; * uint8_t *bin_opt; * int bin_len; * } test_struct; * * static const AVOption test_options[] = { * { "test_int", "This is a test option of int type.", offsetof(test_struct, int_opt), * AV_OPT_TYPE_INT, { .i64 = -1 }, INT_MIN, INT_MAX }, * { "test_str", "This is a test option of string type.", offsetof(test_struct, str_opt), * AV_OPT_TYPE_STRING }, * { "test_bin", "This is a test option of binary type.", offsetof(test_struct, bin_opt), * AV_OPT_TYPE_BINARY }, * { NULL }, * }; * * static const AVClass test_class = { * .class_name = "test class", * .item_name = av_default_item_name, * .option = test_options, * .version = LIBAVUTIL_VERSION_INT, * }; * @endcode * * Next, when allocating your struct, you must ensure that the AVClass pointer * is set to the correct value. Then, av_opt_set_defaults() can be called to * initialize defaults. After that the struct is ready to be used with the * AVOptions API. * * When cleaning up, you may use the av_opt_free() function to automatically * free all the allocated string and binary options. * * Continuing with the above example: * * @code * test_struct *alloc_test_struct(void) * { * test_struct *ret = av_mallocz(sizeof(*ret)); * ret->class = &test_class; * av_opt_set_defaults(ret); * return ret; * } * void free_test_struct(test_struct **foo) * { * av_opt_free(*foo); * av_freep(foo); * } * @endcode * * @subsection avoptions_implement_nesting Nesting * It may happen that an AVOptions-enabled struct contains another * AVOptions-enabled struct as a member (e.g. AVCodecContext in * libavcodec exports generic options, while its priv_data field exports * codec-specific options). In such a case, it is possible to set up the * parent struct to export a child's options. To do that, simply * implement AVClass.child_next() and AVClass.child_class_iterate() in the * parent struct's AVClass. * Assuming that the test_struct from above now also contains a * child_struct field: * * @code * typedef struct child_struct { * AVClass *class; * int flags_opt; * } child_struct; * static const AVOption child_opts[] = { * { "test_flags", "This is a test option of flags type.", * offsetof(child_struct, flags_opt), AV_OPT_TYPE_FLAGS, { .i64 = 0 }, INT_MIN, INT_MAX }, * { NULL }, * }; * static const AVClass child_class = { * .class_name = "child class", * .item_name = av_default_item_name, * .option = child_opts, * .version = LIBAVUTIL_VERSION_INT, * }; * * void *child_next(void *obj, void *prev) * { * test_struct *t = obj; * if (!prev && t->child_struct) * return t->child_struct; * return NULL * } * const AVClass child_class_iterate(void **iter) * { * const AVClass *c = *iter ? NULL : &child_class; * *iter = (void*)(uintptr_t)c; * return c; * } * @endcode * Putting child_next() and child_class_iterate() as defined above into * test_class will now make child_struct's options accessible through * test_struct (again, proper setup as described above needs to be done on * child_struct right after it is created). * * From the above example it might not be clear why both child_next() * and child_class_iterate() are needed. The distinction is that child_next() * iterates over actually existing objects, while child_class_iterate() * iterates over all possible child classes. E.g. if an AVCodecContext * was initialized to use a codec which has private options, then its * child_next() will return AVCodecContext.priv_data and finish * iterating. OTOH child_class_iterate() on AVCodecContext.av_class will * iterate over all available codecs with private options. * * @subsection avoptions_implement_named_constants Named constants * It is possible to create named constants for options. Simply set the unit * field of the option the constants should apply to a string and * create the constants themselves as options of type AV_OPT_TYPE_CONST * with their unit field set to the same string. * Their default_val field should contain the value of the named * constant. * For example, to add some named constants for the test_flags option * above, put the following into the child_opts array: * @code * { "test_flags", "This is a test option of flags type.", * offsetof(child_struct, flags_opt), AV_OPT_TYPE_FLAGS, { .i64 = 0 }, INT_MIN, INT_MAX, "test_unit" }, * { "flag1", "This is a flag with value 16", 0, AV_OPT_TYPE_CONST, { .i64 = 16 }, 0, 0, "test_unit" }, * @endcode * * @section avoptions_use Using AVOptions * This section deals with accessing options in an AVOptions-enabled struct. * Such structs in FFmpeg are e.g. AVCodecContext in libavcodec or * AVFormatContext in libavformat. * * @subsection avoptions_use_examine Examining AVOptions * The basic functions for examining options are av_opt_next(), which iterates * over all options defined for one object, and av_opt_find(), which searches * for an option with the given name. * * The situation is more complicated with nesting. An AVOptions-enabled struct * may have AVOptions-enabled children. Passing the AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN flag * to av_opt_find() will make the function search children recursively. * * For enumerating there are basically two cases. The first is when you want to * get all options that may potentially exist on the struct and its children * (e.g. when constructing documentation). In that case you should call * av_opt_child_class_iterate() recursively on the parent struct's AVClass. The * second case is when you have an already initialized struct with all its * children and you want to get all options that can be actually written or read * from it. In that case you should call av_opt_child_next() recursively (and * av_opt_next() on each result). * * @subsection avoptions_use_get_set Reading and writing AVOptions * When setting options, you often have a string read directly from the * user. In such a case, simply passing it to av_opt_set() is enough. For * non-string type options, av_opt_set() will parse the string according to the * option type. * * Similarly av_opt_get() will read any option type and convert it to a string * which will be returned. Do not forget that the string is allocated, so you * have to free it with av_free(). * * In some cases it may be more convenient to put all options into an * AVDictionary and call av_opt_set_dict() on it. A specific case of this * are the format/codec open functions in lavf/lavc which take a dictionary * filled with option as a parameter. This makes it possible to set some options * that cannot be set otherwise, since e.g. the input file format is not known * before the file is actually opened. */ /** * An option type determines: * - for native access, the underlying C type of the field that an AVOption * refers to; * - for foreign access, the semantics of accessing the option through this API, * e.g. which av_opt_get_*() and av_opt_set_*() functions can be called, or * what format will av_opt_get()/av_opt_set() expect/produce. */ enum AVOptionType{ /** * Underlying C type is unsigned int. */ AV_OPT_TYPE_FLAGS = 1, /** * Underlying C type is int. */ AV_OPT_TYPE_INT, /** * Underlying C type is int64_t. */ AV_OPT_TYPE_INT64, /** * Underlying C type is double. */ AV_OPT_TYPE_DOUBLE, /** * Underlying C type is float. */ AV_OPT_TYPE_FLOAT, /** * Underlying C type is a uint8_t* that is either NULL or points to a C * string allocated with the av_malloc() family of functions. */ AV_OPT_TYPE_STRING, /** * Underlying C type is AVRational. */ AV_OPT_TYPE_RATIONAL, /** * Underlying C type is a uint8_t* that is either NULL or points to an array * allocated with the av_malloc() family of functions.
