上一节我们尝试分析了avformat_open_input函数的源码,这个函数的虽然比较复杂,但是它基本是围绕着创建和初始化一些数据结构来展开的,比如,avformat_open_input函数会创建和初始化AVFormatContext,AVClass ,AVOption,URLContext,URLProtocol ,AVInputFormat ,AVStream等数据结构,这些数据结构的关系如下:
(这里的箭头是包含关系,不是继承关系)
那么,我们可以推测,同样作为Open系列的函数,avcodec_open2的使命也必然是构建和初始化一系列的数据结构,那么是不是这样呢?
avcodec_open2函数定义在libavcodec/aviocodec.h中:
/**
* Initialize the AVCodecContext to use the given AVCodec. Prior to using this
* function the context has to be allocated with avcodec_alloc_context3().
*
* The functions avcodec_find_decoder_by_name(), avcodec_find_encoder_by_name(),
* avcodec_find_decoder() and avcodec_find_encoder() provide an easy way for
* retrieving a codec.
*
* @warning This function is not thread safe!
*
* @note Always call this function before using decoding routines (such as
* @ref avcodec_receive_frame()).
*
* @code
* avcodec_register_all();
* av_dict_set(&opts, "b", "2.5M", 0);
* codec = avcodec_find_decoder(AV_CODEC_ID_H264);
* if (!codec)
* exit(1);
*
* context = avcodec_alloc_context3(codec);
*
* if (avcodec_open2(context, codec, opts) < 0)
* exit(1);
* @endcode
*
* @param avctx The context to initialize.
* @param codec The codec to open this context for. If a non-NULL codec has been
* previously passed to avcodec_alloc_context3() or
* for this context, then this parameter MUST be either NULL or
* equal to the previously passed codec.
* @param options A dictionary filled with AVCodecContext and codec-private options.
* On return this object will be filled with options that were not found.
*
* @return zero on success, a negative value on error
* @see avcodec_alloc_context3(), avcodec_find_decoder(), avcodec_find_encoder(),
* av_dict_set(), av_opt_find().
*/
int avcodec_open2(AVCodecContext *avctx, const AVCodec *codec, AVDictionary **options);
从它的注释中我们可以得到如下信息:
1.使用所给的AVCodec结构体构造AVCodecContext结构体。
2.avcodec_find_decoder_by_name(), avcodec_find_encoder_by_name(),
* avcodec_find_decoder() and avcodec_find_encoder(),这几个函数提供了方便获取AVCodecContext实例的途径。
3.这个函数是线程不安全函数
4.在使用解码程序之前,必须调用此函数。
综上,avcodec_open2函数的核心人物是构造AVCodecContext结构体。
