/**
 * SECTION:gstdataprotocol
 * @short_description: Serialization of caps, buffers and events.
 * @see_also: #GstCaps, #GstEvent, #GstBuffer
 *
 * This helper library provides serialization of GstBuffer, GstCaps and
 * GstEvent structures.
 *
 * This serialization is useful when GStreamer needs to interface with
 * the outside world to transport data between distinct GStreamer pipelines.
 * The connections with the outside world generally don't have mechanisms
 * to transport properties of these structures.
 *
 * For example, transporting buffers across named pipes or network connections
 * doesn't maintain the buffer size and separation.
 *
 * This data protocol assumes a reliable connection-oriented transport, such as
 * TCP, a pipe, or a file.  The protocol does not serialize the caps for
 * each buffer; instead, it transport the caps only when they change in the
 * stream.  This implies that there will always be a caps packet before any
 * buffer packets.
 *
 * The versioning of the protocol is independent of GStreamer's version.
 * The major number gets incremented, and the minor reset, for incompatible
 * changes.  The minor number gets incremented for compatible changes that
 * allow clients who do not completely understand the newer protocol version
 * to still decode what they do understand.
 *
 * Version 0.2 serializes only a small subset of all events, with a custom
 * payload for each type.  Also, all GDP streams start with the initial caps
 * packet.
 *
 * Version 1.0 serializes all events by taking the string representation of
 * the event as the payload.  In addition, GDP streams can now start with
 * events as well, as required by the new data stream model in GStreamer 0.10.
 *
 * Converting buffers, caps and events to GDP buffers is done using a
 * #GstDPPacketizer object and invoking its packetizer functions.
 * For backwards-compatibility reasons, the old 0.2 methods are still
 * available but deprecated.
 *
 * For reference, this image shows the byte layout of the GDP header:
 *
 * <inlinegraphic format="PNG" fileref="gdp-header.png"></inlinegraphic>
