[GStreamer] Element factory metadata for ‘gstmyessrc‘ has no valid long-name field

使用

GST_DEBUG=5 gst-inspect-1.0 --plugin ./libgstmyplugin.so

发现提示

Element factory metadata for 'gstmyessrc' has no valid long-name field

猜测是缺少了什么东西没设置，后来观察其他插件编写规则，发现是缺少了metadata的设置：

static void gst_my_essrc_class_init(GstMyEsSrcClass* klass)
{
	


	//change to element and set meta data , if lack of this, gst-inspect will fail with 
	//" Element factory metadata for 'gstmyessrc' has no valid long-name field"
	GstElementClass *element_class = GST_ELEMENT_CLASS(klass);	//for others
	gst_element_class_set_static_metadata(element_class,
		"[meta data]Filter Demo in libgstmyplugin.dll",
		"[meta data]MyPlugin/Filter Demo",
		"[meta data]Shows the basic structure of a plugin",
		"[meta data]xxx <xxx@xxx.com>");

}

注意，这里必须转化成 element 类才能使用gst_element_class_set_static_metadata。
