 * @short_description: Information about registered typefind functions
 *
 * These functions allow querying informations about registered typefind 
 * functions. How to create and register these functions is described in
 * the section <link linkend="gstreamer-Writing-typefind-functions">
 * "Writing typefind functions"</link>.
 *
 * <example>
 *   <title>how to write a simple typefinder</title>
 *   <programlisting>
 *   typedef struct {
 *     guint8 *data;
 *     guint size;
 *     guint probability;
 *     GstCaps *data;
 *   } MyTypeFind;
 *   static void
 *   my_peek (gpointer data, gint64 offset, guint size)
 *   {
 *     MyTypeFind *find = (MyTypeFind *) data;
 *     if (offset &gt;= 0 &amp;&amp; offset + size &lt;= find->size) {
 *       return find->data + offset;
 *     }
 *     return NULL;
 *   }
 *   static void
 *   my_suggest (gpointer data, guint probability, GstCaps *caps)
 *   {
 *     MyTypeFind *find = (MyTypeFind *) data;
 *     if (probability &gt; find->probability) {
 *       find->probability = probability;
 *       gst_caps_replace (&amp;find->caps, caps);
 *     }
 *   }
 *   static GstCaps *
 *   find_type (guint8 *data, guint size)
 *   {
 *     GList *walk, *type_list;
 *     MyTypeFind find = {data, size, 0, NULL};
 *     GstTypeFind gst_find = {my_peek, my_suggest, &amp;find, };
 *     
 *     walk = type_list = gst_type_find_factory_get_list ();
 *     while (walk) {
 *       GstTypeFindFactory *factory = GST_TYPE_FIND_FACTORY (walk->data);
 *       walk = g_list_next (walk)
 *       gst_type_find_factory_call_function (factory, &amp;gst_find);
 *     }
 *     g_list_free (type_list);
 *     return find.caps;
 *   };
 *   </programlisting>
 * </example>
 *
 * The above example shows how to write a very simple typefinder that identifies
 * the given data. You can get quite a bit more complicated than that though.
