Detailed Description

These functions are used to initialize, shutdown and configure libgpac.

The library shall be initialized using gf_sys_init and terminated using gf_sys_close

The library can usually be configured from command line if your program uses gf_sys_set_args.

The library can also be configured from your program using gf_opts_set_key and related functions right after initializing the library.

For more information on configuration options, see

gpac -hx core

and https://wiki.gpac.io/core_options

For more information on filters configuration options, see https://wiki.gpac.io/Filters

Function Documentation

◆ gf_sys_init()

GF_Err gf_sys_init ( GF_MemTrackerType  mem_tracker_type,
const char *  profile 
)

Inits system tools (GPAC global config, high-resolution clock if any, CPU usage manager, random number, ...).

You MUST call this function before calling any libgpac function, typically only once at startup.

The profile allows using a different global config file than the default, and may be a name (without / or \) or point to an existing config file.

Note
This can be called several times but only the first call will result in system setup.
Parameters
mem_tracker_typememory tracking mode
profilename of the profile to load, NULL for default.
Returns
Error code if any

◆ gf_sys_close()

void gf_sys_close ( )

Closes allocated system resources opened by gf_sys_init.

Note
This can be called several times but systems resources will be closed when no more users are accounted for.

When JavaScript APIs are loaded, the JS runtime is destroyed in this function call. If your application needs to reload GPAC a second time after this, you MUST prevent JS runtime destruction otherwise the application will crash due to static JS class definitions refering to freed memory. To prevent destruction, make sure you have called

gf_opts_set_key("temp", "static-jsrt", "true");
GF_Err gf_opts_set_key(const char *secName, const char *keyName, const char *keyValue)

before calling gf_sys_close. For example:

//run your code, eg a filter session
//prevent JSRT destruction
gf_opts_set_key("temp", "static-jsrt", "true");
//The JSRT is still valid
//run your code, eg another filter session
//do NOT prevent JSRT, parent app will exit after this call
void gf_sys_close()
System closing.
GF_Err gf_sys_init(GF_MemTrackerType mem_tracker_type, const char *profile)
System setup.
