Exactly.  There is no problem with how get_factory() is written.  What you're
seeing is probably a side effect of the floating reference functionality of
GstObject (see Description section of GstObject[1]).  We've opted not to
include this in gstreamermm at this point because we have automatic
referencing, but it's tricky thus the side effect.  Could you please try with
the following checked in change?

2008-11-04  Jos? Alburquerque  <jaalburqu svn gnome org>

        * gstreamer/gstreamermm/object.cc: Fix the floating reference aversion
        code so that it checks that the GstObject is floating before
        referencing it and then sinking it.

Also, please try to create attachments in the report; they're easier to use. 
Thanks.

------- Comment #5 from RichardF  2008-11-05 04:44 UTC -------
Jos?, as it turns out I just came to the same conclusion as you about the use
of gst_object_ref() and gst_object_sink() in the Gst::Object constructor, and
made the same change as your patch - albeit with a G_LIKELY around the
GST_OBJECT_IS_FLOATING, as I guessed that is the most common case ;) - and was
about to add the details to this bug report when I saw your post. :)

Your change (along with Murray's previous change) works as desired, and the
test code I posted above now results in the underlying GstElementFactory only
having the required one remaining reference after all the RefPtrs have
destructed.

Thanks for your prompt attention to this problem.

           Product: gnomemm
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: goocanvasmm

        ReportedBy: louisfrancis rb gmail com

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


I try to create a new item implementing the interface Goocanvas::Item, but I
can't find how to override get_items_at_vfunc correctly. When I try to add the
current object (this) to the list of found items, the compiler complains about
an invalid cast from "Goocanvas::Item* const" to "Goocanvas::Item*".

I've done the same but will not check it in until a little later with some
other things I'm working on.  Thanks for the report.
