+ - Additional types can be added to the documentation by placing them in
+ the .types file like this:
+ type:GstPlayBaseBin
+ This is useful for documenting plugin-private types that implement
+ signals or properties. The GType is looked up by name after all the
+ element classes have been printed - so this is only useful for types
+ that are created as a consequence of loading plugins and registering
+ the element(s).
- to add a plugin to be documented:
- make sure inspect/ has generated a inspect/plugin-xxx.xml file for it.
