[Vala] gstreamer element

[Jordi Burguet Castell <jordi burguet castell gmail com>]

Hello,

Has anyone tried to do a gstreamer *element* in vala? It sounds to me
like it would be worth because of the more succinct syntax, but I
could not figure out how to put the element and pads description in
the base_init() funtion (apart from putting the properties in the
class_init() and then doing the real initialization in the init()
functions).

The only related documentation I've found is:
http://valadoc.org/references/gstreamer-0.10/0.11.5/index.htm
but nothing about how to put things in base_init()

And also how to make a pipeline using gstreamer elements:
http://live.gnome.org/Vala/GStreamerSample
but not how to do the elements themselves.

Thanks,
Jordi
