From c11fb8288d282da430f598bb029deccbacb31591 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anton Khirnov Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2011 07:11:26 +0200 Subject: AVOptions: add AV_OPT_SEARCH_FAKE_OBJ flag for av_opt_find(). It allows to search for options only with AVClass, without allocating the corresponding context. --- libavutil/opt.h | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) (limited to 'libavutil/opt.h') diff --git a/libavutil/opt.h b/libavutil/opt.h index 30aa54f5b6..21dac7c569 100644 --- a/libavutil/opt.h +++ b/libavutil/opt.h @@ -215,6 +215,13 @@ int av_opt_set_dict(void *obj, struct AVDictionary **options); #define AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN 0x0001 /**< Search in possible children of the given object first. */ +/** + * The obj passed to av_opt_find() is fake -- only a double pointer to AVClass + * instead of a required pointer to a struct containing AVClass.
