link_pads

Description:

[ CCode ( cname = "gst_element_link_pads_full" ) ]
public bool link_pads (string? srcpadname, Element dest, string? destpadname, PadLinkCheck flags = DEFAULT)

Links the two named pads of the source and destination elements.

Side effect is that if one of the pads has no parent, it becomes a child of the parent of the other element. If they have different parents, the link fails.

Calling link_pads with flags == DEFAULT is the same as calling gst_element_link_pads and the recommended way of linking pads with safety checks applied.

This is a convenience function for link.

Parameters:

this	a Element containing the source pad.
srcpadname	the name of the Pad in source element or `null` for any pad.
dest	the Element containing the destination pad.
destpadname	the name of the Pad in destination element, or `null` for any pad.
flags	the PadLinkCheck to be performed when linking pads.

Returns:

true if the pads could be linked, false otherwise.
