Hi I would like to bind gst\_update\_registry function. Should I define a module fonction (Gst.update\_registry) or a class one (Gst::Registry.update). Gstreamer doc show this function with main ones (gst\_init, gst\_version…). [http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/gstreamer-Gst.html#gst-update-registry](http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/gstreamer-Gst.html#gst-update-registry) – Vincent C. ---

Because Gst::Registry.update is object oriented form (object.verb form) but Gst.update\_registry is functional form (namespace.verb\_object). ## Thanks, kou ---

I have joined a patch that implements Gst::Registry.update. However the default registry does not seems to be updated when calling this method. Is it a gstreamer bug ? terminal 1 $ irb terminal 1 \> require ‘gst’ =\> true terminal 1 \> d=Gst::Registry.default =\> #\ terminal 1 \> d.plugins.size =\> 114 terminal 2 $ sudo aptitude install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg terminal 1 \>d.plugins.size =\> 114 terminal 1 \> Gst::Registry.update =\> true terminal 1 \> d.plugins.size =\> 114 terminal 1 \> quit terminal 1 $ irb terminal 1 \> require ‘gst’ =\> true terminal 1 \> d=Gst::Registry.default =\> #\ terminal 1 \> d.plugins.size =\> 233 ---
