[vlc-devel] [PATCH v6 0/3] Media source and media tree

[Romain Vimont]

Here is an update of my (old) v5 patchset.

I removed the patch "Use new media source API from the playlist", since
there is no need to maintain it (the new playlist is merged). I added
unit tests to use the API instead.

I "merged" media source and media tree into the same header
(include/vlc_media_source.h), and squashed the two first patches into
one.

The media tree callbacks were confusing in previous versions:
 - listener_added
 - node_added
 - node_removed
 - subtree_added

They were created based on the underlying events (node_added and
node_removed when the SD notified a change, subtree_added when
preparsing notified new children, listener_added to retrieve the initial
state when the client registered a listener).

I replaced them by 3 callbacks notifying changes on a specific node
(possibly the root node), whatever the cause:
 - on_children_reset
 - on_children_added
 - on_children_removed

I also updated many details/naming to make the API and implementation
consistent with the playlist.

After that, in a separate patch, I added functions to get the available
media source metadata for a specific category.

Romain Vimont (3):
  vlc_input_item: export RemoveNode()
  media source: introduce media source/tree API
  media source: add API to get available sources
