Function Documentation

const AVOption* av_find_opt	(	void *	obj,
		const char *	name,
		const char *	unit,
		int	mask,
		int	flags
	)

Looks for an option in obj.

Looks only for the options which have the flags set as specified in mask and flags (that is, for which it is the case that opt->flags & mask == flags).

Parameters:

[in]	obj	a pointer to a struct whose first element is a pointer to an AVClass
[in]	name	the name of the option to look for
[in]	unit	the unit of the option to look for, or any if NULL

Returns:

a pointer to the option found, or NULL if no option has been found

void av_opt_set_defaults2	(	void *	s,

Set the values of the AVCodecContext or AVFormatContext structure.

They are set to the defaults specified in the according AVOption options array default_val field.

Parameters:

s

AVCodecContext or AVFormatContext for which the defaults will be set

attribute_deprecated const AVOption* av_set_string2	(	void *	obj,
		const char *	name,
		const char *	val,
		int	alloc
	)

Returns:

a pointer to the AVOption corresponding to the field set or NULL if no matching AVOption exists, or if the value val is not valid

See also:

av_set_string3()

Definition at line 203 of file opt.c.

int av_set_string3	(	void *	obj,
		const char *	name,
		const char *	val,
		int	alloc,
		const AVOption **	o_out
	)

Sets the field of obj with the given name to value.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	A struct whose first element is a pointer to an AVClass.
[in]	name	the name of the field to set
[in]	val	The value to set. If the field is not of a string type, then the given string is parsed. SI postfixes and some named scalars are supported. If the field is of a numeric type, it has to be a numeric or named scalar. Behavior with more than one scalar and +- infix operators is undefined. If the field is of a flags type, it has to be a sequence of numeric scalars or named flags separated by '+' or '-'. Prefixing a flag with '+' causes it to be set without affecting the other flags; similarly, '-' unsets a flag.
[out]	o_out	if non-NULL put here a pointer to the AVOption found
	alloc	when 1 then the old value will be av_freed() and the new av_strduped() when 0 then no av_free() nor av_strdup() will be used

Returns:

0 if the value has been set, an AVERROR* error code if no matching option exists, or if the value val is not valid
